Our Minnesota State motto is
​“L'etoile du Nord”. 

Historically, the North Star was a stable and guiding presence for early pioneers and explorers on their journeys.

Minnesota State Motto
Where will you go?  Follow your star.


P.E.O. originated with the bond of friendship between seven kindred spirits in 1869, and was founded on principles of promoting opportunities and education for women.  Much like the guiding presence of "L'etoile du Nord", the P.E.O. star is a beloved symbol of our guiding purpose, and that of our founders, to celebrate the achievements of women, and to be a source of encouragement and support for women to realize their potential in whatever worthwhile endeavor they choose.

The symbol of Liberty: In the MN House of Representatives, a woman with a star represents the freedom and promise felt by those settling in the new State of Minnesota. The P.E.O. star embodies that same shining promise.

If you are not a member of P.E.O., we invite you to learn more about us.  Particularly visit the P.E.O. Project pages to learn about our important work promoting opportunity and education for women.  The P.E.O. Record, the official magazine, is also a good place to learn more about the P.E.O. network of women supporting women.  And our P.E.O. International website has more information. 

We welcome inquiries through the "Contact Us" form below, and visitors who want to learn more about P.E.O.
What is P.E.O.?
From the time of our founding, to today, P.E.O. sisters have been promoting educational opportunities for women. We participate in supporting a number of international projects to help women achieve their educational goals. P.E.O. has made a difference in tens of thousands of women's lives, through hundreds of millions of dollars in grants, loans and scholarships. Learn more on the P.E.O. International website.

The Minnesota State Chapter of the P.E.O. Sisterhood was organized in 1912. Since then it has grown to more than 150 chapters representing 6,400 plus members. These chapters have sponsored thousands of women for educational loans, grants, and scholarships totaling many millions of dollars.
