Relief is one of our fraternity’s enduring and relevant values. Through California’s Masonic charities, we give back to our brothers, our families, and our communities. As Masons, we collectively express our generosity and charity through three programs: The Masonic Homes which provides relief to seniors and to children through our mental health services group; The Distressed Worthy Brother Relief Fund which provides critical relief to Masons and their families; and to the California Masonic Foundation, which supports early childhood education programs in the lowest performing schools in our state.
The Masonic Homes of California: Through residential facilities, statewide outreach, and support for youth with mental health difficulties, the Masonic Homes provides critical, relevant services to Masonic family members throughout California. Learn more.
California Masonic Foundation: Since 1969, the California Masonic Foundation has supported public schools, students, and teachers – from kindergarten to college – through meaningful educational partnerships and scholarships. The Foundation also provides support for community partnerships. Learn more about the California Masonic Foundation on its website.
Our philanthropic causes are supported entirely by generous contributions from California Masons and our families and friends. Make a gift or view our donor list.
