Leading the Way
The Society
A private circle of people who lead by example
Blackbow Society brings together people who share a commitment to integrity, good work and service to others.
Mission
Our mission
To bring together people of good character, to help one another grow, and to lead by example in our families, our work and our communities.
We do this by keeping our word, by giving our time and experience to those who need it, and by holding ourselves to the standards we ask of others.
Principles
What we stand for
-
Brotherly Love
We treat one another with kindness, tolerance and respect, whatever our background or opinions.
-
Relief
We care for those in need, within the society and beyond, through generosity and personal service.
-
Truth
We are honest in word and deed, keep our promises and hold ourselves to high moral standards.
Leading the Way
The tree of life
The tree of life is the symbol of how we understand leadership.
Its roots are the values we hold and the people who came before us. Its trunk is the strength we find in one another. Its branches are the good we carry into the world.
A tree grows slowly, from the ground up, and gives shelter to others. We believe leading the way works the same: it begins with character and is measured by what it gives back.
Membership
By invitation only
Membership is extended by invitation. New members are introduced by an existing member and welcomed after getting to know the society.
