In addition to helping its members celebrate their own MacDonald heritage, The Michigan Clan Donald Society helps promote the public awareness of Scottish culture on a broad basis. Among those efforts, the Society assists the Council of Scottish Clans and Associations, and its member organizations, to enroll potential members of the various clans in their local societies.

Since many of the smaller clan groups may not be represented at each local Highland Games or other Scottish events in Michigan, individuals interested in joining their own clan organization often find it difficult to identify a contact person to enroll them.

The Michigan Clan Donald Society maintains a current list of these clan representatives and makes them available to interested people at all local Highland Games. In addition, the Michigan Society hosts Scottish Information Tables at pipe band concerts, Burns Dinners, genealogical seminars and a variety of other activities which Scots attend.

Visitors may learn about a variety of topics at the Information Tables such as Scottish history, culture, and customs as well as obtaining assistance in joining their respective clan organization. These efforts are viewed as a public service for all interested Scots and clan organizations.
