 Charity

Charitable giving plays an important part in the life of Masonic Lodges.

Freemasonry is the largest contributor to charity in England after the National Lottery.

Our Charity work is done at Grand Lodge Level (see below), at Provincial Level, and at a local level. Each WM of the Lodge chooses which Charitible causes he would like the Brethren to support throughout his year in Office, though this is not exclusive should other needs appear.

The Charity Archives sub-menu shows some of the Charity work done by the Lodge of St Michael in the past.

A major new charity launched in April 2016

www.mcf.org.uk

The Foundation has taken over the work of the four central Masonic Charities, providing a wide range of grants to Freemasons and their families who have a financial, health and care or family need.

The Foundation awards grants to other charities, medical research studies and disaster relief appeals.

Funded entirely through the generous donations of the Masonic community, the Foundation has an annual charitable expenditure which places it amongst the largest charities in the country.

Strong, well-resourced and able to respond more effectively to the changing needs of Masonic families and other charitable organisations the Foundation does very important work..
