MARINERS LODGE

The fraternity is widely involved in charity and community service activities. Freemasonry worldwide disburses substantial charitable amounts to non-Masonic charities, locally, nationally and internationally. There are thousands of philanthropic organisations around the world created by Freemasons. The Masonic Service Association, the Masonic Medical Research Laboratory, and the Shriners Hospitals for Children are especially notable charitable endeavours that Masons have founded and continue to support both intellectually and monetarily.
