You helped residents enjoy meaningful moments and ensured families peace of mind.

Multi-sensory rooms, a gift from Washington Lodge No. 156, give a new dimension to recreation for residents in the Masonic Health Care Center in Elizabethtown. Residents have the opportunity to be immersed in music, images and colors, providing mental stimulation, memory enhancement and mood boosting.

A new koi pond and waterfall in Warminster, made possible thanks to a donation from Masonic Lodge No. 9, with significant support from Concordia Lodge No. 67 and Newtown Lodge No. 427, provides a tranquil and decorative element to the outside courtyard, with residents enjoying feeding and watching the fish.

Additionally, many items purchased through donor funds significantly impact day-to-day life, including: wellness equipment, a putting green, specialty mattresses and wardrobes. Residents’ lives are made safer, healthier and more fulfilled.

Through the Masonic Outreach Program, widows know they always have someone by their side, with financial assistance and personal support available in their time of need. Masons facing hardships also know the fraternity is there to support them through good times and bad. These reassurances are only available because of the contributions of our donors.

Donors have not only helped Masonic Villages survive challenging times in the past and present, but you’ve helped us thrive and shine. The possibilities of more smiles, hugs, laughter and joy increase with every gift.
