The Masonic Charities Corporation

My Brothers:

The First Westchester Putnam Masonic Charity Corporation (MCC), a 501(c) (3) non-profit corporation, is the primary charitable organization affiliated with the First Westchester Putnam District. While the MCC feels a special responsibility for the care of our members and their families, it also provides support to people with no connection with the Masonic Fraternity. The MCC works with local Masonic Lodges to help distribute funds to local charitable organizations. In recent years your contributions supported the United Food for Troops, Hillside Food Outreach, Masonic Student Assistance Training (MSAT) and My Sister’s Place to name a few.

MOTTO: Faith, Hope, Charity – Masonic Charities Helping People.

CONCEPT: Lodges – Focal Point of the MCC. When the MCC obtains the necessary capital to create sufficient interest returns, the intent is to budget some charitable funds for each Lodge to use each year. The Lodge’s charity must be approved by the MCC Members, and the allocated funds can only be spent for that approved charity.


PLACING A REQUEST FOR CHARITY:  Any and all requests for charity funds should be placed before the Masonic Lodge Charity Committee using the MCC Community Charity Form or written on Lodge letterhead with Lodge seal so that further light may be placed upon the request before funds are disbursed.


 MCC is planning an interesting and exciting year check the web site Calendar for meetings and events. If you are not yet a member of the MCC and wish to join or contribute to the MCC please contact any MCC Officer.

Thank You

Tarrytown Mondays 8PM 10/22/10 12/20/2010 2/21/2011 4/18/2011 6/20/2011

The principal officers of each Lodge, Master, Senior and Junior Wardens, will meet to discuss Trestle boards and plans among Lodges. The purpose is to help all officers plan a successful year and avoid conflicts in scheduling.

This kind of help and training was a regular activity in the heyday of the M&W. Brothers did enjoy the fun nights we had - cards, bocce ball, Masonic Movie night etc.-if there is an interest. 

You may be an incoming or outgoing Officer, but ideally, the members should be Masters and Wardens. Membership will change as we pass through the respective Stations.

The first meeting on Monday 10/22/2010 will be at the Tarrytown Temple at 8 PM. The meetings are scheduled to take place every other month during the year.

The agenda for the meeting will include:

• Supporting the District while growing our Lodge participation.
• Plan the annual M&W awards dinner and bi-annual testimonials.
• Fundraising.

Contact us to RSVP.  We look forward to hearing from you, Brothers.

Remember, we are here to help each other.

Preparation, education and communication are the keys to success and they are not worth very much if we don’t share them.

Fraternally,
