Freemasons are taught to give Freely to charity
Why Charity is important
to Freemasonry
The three Great Principles by which we stand are Brotherly Love, Relief, and Truth. Freemasons are taught to practice charity and to care, not only for their own, but also for the community as a whole, both by charitable giving and by voluntary efforts and works as individuals.
​
From its earliest days, Freemasonry has been concerned with the care of orphans, the sick and the aged. This work continues today. In addition, large sums of money are given to national and local charities.
Masonic charity is exercised at every level; individual Lodges make gifts and give aid to their own communities and every Province/District also gives to regional causes.
​
The overall value of grants made by the Masonic charities is in the millions per year, all of which is income generated within Freemasonry.

Masonic Events
Masonic events aren't just about fellowship and celebration, they also serve as a means of raising funds for charitable causes, supporting communities in need, and making a positive impact on the world. Masonic events bring brothers and community members together to raise funds for various charitable causes, making a positive impact on those in need.t.
