New Benevolence Builder Grant Series for Massachusetts Masonic Angel Fund Chapters

We are pleased to announce that a new series of Benevolence Builder Grants has been funded by the Grand Royal Arch Chapter of Massachusetts.

This grant series will run from December 15, 2010 through January 31, 2011 and will conclude early if the allocated funds are expended.  

Any Massachusetts Masonic Angel Fund in good standing may apply for a 50% replenishment of benevolences conferred during the grant period.  Please note that each qualified Masonic Angel Fund may receive up to a cap of $200 for this series.  This means that we can replenish 50% of your benevolences up to $400 during the life of this grant series.

To apply for a Benevolence Builder Grant simply email the particulars of each benevolence to info@masonicangelfund.org - DO NOT save up your benevolences to be submitted at one time - the money might very well be depleted before you submit your request.  Please send your requests as soon as you confer the benevolences. 

We express our sincerest thanks to the Grand Royal Arch Chapter of Massachusetts for their long-standing commitment to the Masonic Angel Fund program.  York Rite was the very first Masonic group to support MAF at the time the program was established in 1998.  The York Rite Bodies of Cape Cod hosted the first fund-raising dinner and auction for MAF in December 2008, just a few weeks after we established Universal Lodge’s Masonic Angel Fund, raising over $3,500 from an auction of gift certificates and Beanie Babies.

Regards to all,
