At the meeting of Mark Grand Lodge at Freemasons’ Hall on Tuesday, the Pro Grand Master, M.W.Bro. Raymond John Smith, announced that the Mark Benevolent Fund would be donating £25,000 to the Mark Inspectorate of Romania who have been working proactively in many ways to provide support and relief to their neighbours in Ukraine.
This tremendous endeavour has touched Freemasons across the Constitution and many of our Brethren are keen to add their own support by making a donation.
We have set up a Relief Chest with the M.C.F. under the name of the Mark Emergency Relief Fund and you can now make donations in a variety of ways.
We know that there is enormous support for this already. To make the administration of donations as smooth as possible, enabling funds to be transferred efficiently to where they are needed most, we ask that you note the following advice regarding donations:
For individual donations of less than £100 – please make arrangements with your Mark Lodge for these to be collected centrally and then for the Lodge to make one consolidated donation into the Fund. These consolidated donations will count toward the Lodge’s M.B.F. honorifics, rather than each individuals.
Donations of £100 or more may be made by individuals directly into the fund and will count towards the Brother’s M.B.F. Honorifics
In all correspondence please ensure you are donating to:
Mark Emergency Relief Fund
Relief Chest No.: MMM185622
