Enjoy! I definitely got important things to say
As many of you will remember our Provincial Grand Charity Steward John Mills wrote to Lodges to-wards the end of 2019, asking for nominations from Lodges for grants to charities and worthy causes from the Cornwall Mark Foundation.
Unfortunately due to the Corona Virus the planned meeting had to be cancelled, however following discussions between the Provincial Grand Master, Trustees and Members of the Committee, we are pleased to announce that donations totalling £12,000.00 have been made to twenty four local groups, with a further £8,500.00 being granted to four local charities.
Requests received from Two or More Lodges
Merlin MS Centre £2000.00
iSight Cornwall £500.00
Sowenna Unit £5000.00
Motor Neurone Association Cornwall Branch £1000.00
At their September 2019 meeting, the Freemasons of St Michaels Lodge of Mark Master Masons agreed that the sum of £100 be donated to certain local charities which help and support young people in Helston.
The charities chosen were :
Mustard Seed
Girl guiding in Helston
Helston Scout Group, and
Helston Town Band – Junior section
The WM ( John Osmond) accompanied by his Charity Steward (Barry Williams) have visited each organisation who were delighted to accept their Cheques and thanked the Lodge for their donation.
