"Pro Bono Publica"
The National Association of the
Wolves was founded on September 19, 1951 and consists of Local Wolves Clubs
(known as Dens) located in many communities, presently in Pennsylvania
and Ohio.
The Association has been patterned
similar to such nationally known organizations as the Rotary, Kiwanis,
Lions, etc. It is dedicated to do good for its' community and its'
citizens.
Our Motto:
"Pro Bono Publica" a Latin phrase,
means, "For the Good of the Public."
Meaning of the Name Wolves
The name Wolves in truly a symbol of
service. This fact is symbolized by the Old Roman Legend about the
Twins Romulus and Remus who were placed in a trough and cast into the River
Tiber by their Grand Uncle Annulus.The trough was grounded in the marshes
where Rome afterwards stood. The babes were suckled by the She-Wolf
until they were later found by a shepherd who reared them into manhood.
The twins have been credited, according to
the Legend, to have built the city of Rome, and Romulus is regarded as
the founder of the Military and political Institutions of Rome.
This act of charity by the She-Wolf is most
noteworthy and for this reason appealed to our founders as a most appropriate
name for our organization. The act of giving and offering help to
those in need is characteristic of the main objects of our association.
