The year 1990 marked the 100 th anniversary of the Grand Lodge of the Order of the Sons of Hermann in Texas. The Order continues to grow in membership, assets, surplus, and solvency. Total membership is currently over 80,000. Although all of the members of the Sons of Hermann were originally German, by 1965 only about half of them were. Each year the members of the Sons of Hermann donate hundreds of thousands of hours to nursing homes, libraries, hospitals, fire departments, museums, etc.
Many lodges also award scholarships to junior members who are graduating from high school.
Hermann Sons is currently working on setting up a campaign against drunk and reckless driving in Texas.
