Mission Statement
The Masonic Foundation of Alberta is a Charitable Foundation established to assist Alberta's Freemasons with their charitable endeavours and to enhance the profile of Freemasonry in their local communities. In addition the Foundation directly assists youth-serving organizations in their efforts to serve and protect at-risk youth in our communities. To the end of 2015 the Foundation has been able to contribute a total of $1,070,000 to 108 charities in conjunction with the Masonic Lodges of Alberta. 2016 marked the 25th Anniversary of the Masonic Foundation of Alberta. Instructions on how to make donations to the Foundation, as well as the process and forms required to request assistance from the Foundation, for Lodge projects, can be found on the "Donations" and "Request Assistance" pages of the website.
About This Cause
The Masonic Foundation of Alberta was formed in principle as a result of resolutions passed at the 1989 and 1990 Grand Lodge of Alberta Communications. Previous to that date a Grand Master’s committee was struck to begin the process of establishing a Masonic Charitable Foundation in Alberta. It was from the roots of that committee that, in 1991, was brought about the formal organization and structure of the Foundation. While the Foundation has a number of objectives (indicated in the Official Brochure of the Foundation), the two basic objectives are: •To encourage, stimulate and assist financially, various Lodges that have identified particular Charitable projects. It is the hope of the foundation that it can match financially the funds raised by the local Lodge for a specific registered charity. •To identify worthy charitable projects that can be funded directly by the Foundation. These projects, which are focused upon helping young people, can either be long term or short term.
