Cepranese Club of Detroit

“Chi trova amico, trova un tesoro.”
“Who finds a friend, finds a treasure.”

                                      Italian Proverb

For more than 75 years the Cepranese Club of Detroit has lived up to those words, creating camaraderie and bonds that have lasted decades.

At the same time it’s celebrated the heritage, the history and the ties it has with the Italian city for which the club is named - Ceprano, Italy.  A social-fraternal organization, the Cepranese Club’s 140 members are made up of immigrants from Ceprano or descendents of those individuals.

From bocce ball tournaments to golf outings and summer family picnics to sumptuous Christmas  dinner dances, Cepranese Club members know how to have fun.  But more important, they know how to combine good times with a good cause.  In the past, the club has donated funds to:

 - Earthquake victims in Italy
 - Disabled American war veterans
 - the American Leukemia Society
