     The Women’s Auxiliary Club of the Sons of Sicily (SOS) of San Jose (Aiuto, Inc.) was founded to support the purposes of the SOS. The first duty of the Women’s Auxiliary Club shall be to gather regularly to share aspects of the Sicilian heritage from a female perspective and support in the fundraising goals of the SOS. The club shall follow the main purpose of the SOS, to "help" its members and families. The club shall be a social club, gathering to further the customs and traditions of the Sicilian culture, and increase the awareness of these customs and traditions in our younger generation. The club shall be consistent with the SOS stated purposes.

     The Women’s Auxiliary Club of the Sons of Sicily of San Jose was established under the 2003-2005 elected Officers and Board of Directors of the Sons of Sicily.

Relay For Life Walk: Our Sicilian Sisterhood + Friends team welcome our 2nd Annual Event and will walk at Willow Glen High School in support of Cancer Awareness.  Members of the team will walk 24 consecutive hours!  Last year, our special event T-shirt created by Tonette, won the best T-shirt prize at the event. Join us this year for many more fun surprises as we continue to help raise awareness and much needed funds for the American Cancer Society.

Bunny Baskets
Once again, making more baskets this March. Thank you in advance to our Membership who continue to donate and create so many baskets filled with love. We have been able to donate an average of approximately 70 Easter Baskets each year.  In 2010 our basekts were delivered to the Ronald McDonald House. We are so thrilled to continue to help different local charities in our area. Check back soon for a link to their site.

Blanket/Jacket Donations
Once again, our club stepped up and helped the needy with our recent Blanket/Jacket Drive.  Since we started the program in 2010, we have donated over 300 Jackets and Blankets.  We cannot thank our Membership enough for your continual support and help!

Heart Walk: This year due to event conflicts we will not participate in the Heart Walk.  We will be back in action in 2012!  Please join our Sicilian Sisterhood team in October 2012 as we participate in our 4th Heart Walk event to benefit the American Heart Association.  It's a 5k walk and we welcome all friends and family to join us. 

Italian American Family Festa: The Sicilian Sisterhood will be present at the 31st Annual Italian American Family Festa this year. A great event, wonderful people and beautiful weather.  Stop by our Sicilian Sisterhood tent and learn more about our amazing club and group!
