Charities

Charity.

"There are some who, perhaps from circumstances of unavoidable calamity and misfortune, are reduced to the lowest ebb of poverty and distress..."
From the Masonic charity charge

Giving to charity and good causes is important to us as Freemasons. As a Lodge we support local causes directly. As an organisation we are able to distribute large amounts of aid both within the UK and internationally. Freemasonry is second only to the National Lottery in the amounts it gives to charity.
