Welcome to the site of CIBPA Winnipeg and the Order of Sons of Italy (SOI) - Garibaldi Lodge in Winnipeg, Canada.

The SOI has established itself as North America's largest and longest serving organization representing men and women of Italian Heritage.

With our sister lodge - La Lupa Di Roma, we are constantly working towards funding and showcasing key elements of our heritage to the community.

For Italian - Canadians heritage is expressed in the way we prepare for our gatherings, holiday feasts and religious customs. How we gather around friends and families. For some it is in the appreciation of Italy's contribution to the arts, fashion, music, literature, science and architecture.

Over and above this the SOI has established itself in philanthropic causes and has funded programs in the greater community whether they be in medical research, education, or with inner-city poverty food banks.

Our lodges are part of a nationwide network of Italian Canadians providing support, protecting the good name and positive image of Italian Canadians, encouragement in the political process and advocacy and promoting education.

An additional feature of our network is our link to the national order of Canadian Italian Business and Professional Association (CIBPA). This organization is a nationwide network of Italian Canadian individuals who perform in the business and/or professional arenas of our country. CIBPA's mandate is to develop a network exchange of ideas, business ventures and funding across Canada with those willing to expand their mandates.

The Sons of Italy website is established to help you navigate through our various links outlining in further detail our programs and how you can contact us in need of information, scholarship applications, membership or general enquiries.
