On September 20, 1851, the Independent Order of Odd Fellows became the first fraternal organization in North America to accept women and men when the Degree of Rebekah was adopted. This degree was written by Brother Schuyler Colfax who eventually became the 17th U.S. Vice President from 1869 to 1873.
The Rebekah Lodge or simply the Rebekahs, is an international service-oriented fraternal organization and a branch of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. It was initially designed as the female auxiliary but allows both female and male members.
It is one of the branches of the IOOF, but women need not be related to an Odd Fellow to be a member of the Rebekahs. In most jurisdictions, women or man, aged 16 years old and above can join a Rebekah Lodge.
