We are a Benevolent Society, making monetary contributions to valuable organizations, as well as, collecting tangible donations for local social service agencies.  

We strive to honor our aged members with cards and phone calls to let them know we value them.  Aged members who reside in nursing/care facilities are given their memberships paid for by the Lodge.  The Old Age and Benefit Fund, managed by the Grand Lodge is made available to members with a monetary gift up to $3,000, depending on age and years of membership.

Through November and December we are collecting personal hygiene items for the city's new Homeless Initiative headed by Sarah Prylinski.

January and February benevolence will include items for the students at Luther Memorial Academy:

-Clorox wipes for lunchtime cleanup

-Napkins, forks, spoons (also for lunchtime/students who forget)

-Ramen Noodles/other nonperishable lunch snacks (for students who forget a lunch)

-Small bottles of water

-Reams of white copy paper

-Small student prize items (earned as a reward for positive behavior) - we'll have some suggestions for you.
