Administrative history
The Imperial Order of Daughters of the Empire, Lord Sackville Chapter was formed in Sackville, New Brunswick, on 28 August 1918, in response to a national appeal "to come to the aid of the country" following the outbreak of World War I. Initially established with forty-five members, by the end of the year 102 women had registered. As a service club the IODE's early efforts were to provide support for the troops by sending knitted goods, etc., but activities soon branched out into the local community and projects related to health, education and social welfare were undertaken.
