One of the main aspects of Freemasonry revolves around charitable giving. Freemasons contribute to society at a local and global level. Through Masonic charities, donations are made to local and other UK charities as well as global disaster relief chests.
Freemasonry helps causes from the local food bank to an international crisis. All funds raised are from donations made by our own members.
The Masonic Charitable Foundation
Funded entirely through donations from our members and their families, the Masonic Charitable Foundation is one of the largest grant giving charities in the UK.
West Riding Masonic Charities Ltd
The WRMC is the designated charity of the Masonic Province of West Yorkshire.
It supports the wider community by responding rapidly to provide emergency assistance for local disasters and awarding grants to charities that support the most vulnerable in our communities.
It also supports its members and their families when in need by making emergency grants to qualifying Freemasons, their family and dependents.
