Charity In The Province of Surrey
Kindness has always been a core principle of Freemasonry. Individuals give time and money to help others, whether locally, nationally or globally. It may be realising a dream for a member’s child, caring for older Freemasons, volunteering on a local community project, making donations to other UK charities or responding to an international disaster appeal.
What is Masonic Charity?
One of the cornerstones of our Fraternity is charitable giving and support within the local community to both Masonic and public charities.
Donations are also made to National and International charities where relief or much needed funds for aid is needed.
It is not just about money but caring and supporting those in need of help and assistance.
​
How Do Masons Give To Charity?
Every Mason is encouraged to give within his means and without detriment to his family.
Charity is raised in many ways either through donations at each meeting or even a fun event where the family can also get involved.
Individual lodges donate to local good causes, to projects within their communities and to National causes.
Lodges also donate to the Surrey for Surrey Fund where donations are accumulated that a larger donation is made to charity organisations in Surrey.
The Province of Surrey also supports National charities and sends much needed funds where a disaster has occurred or a piece of equipment is needed in a hospital.
