A LITTLE AND OFTEN—IT ALL ADDS UP! Our national charity the Masonic Charitable Foundation (MCF) continues to support the Province with grants and donations to worthy causes in East Kent. Here are three recent examples: £55,000 to Kent Wildlife Trust £30,000 to Ellenor Hospice £2,500 to Kent Scouts towards their “Shackleton” expedition They cannot do this without contributions from all the Lodges and Chapters under the United Grand Lodge of England. A little and often is a great way to contribute. You can set up a regular payment, as little or as much as you like. During our 2025 Festival, if you donate £300 or commit to donating £300 through Regular Giving you qualify for a Festival Jewel; and by donating more you can become a Vice Patron, Patron or Grand Patron. Details are available on the Festival website. In East Kent Province, we want to raise the whopping sum of £3.5 million for the Masonic Charitable Foundation (MCF) via our 2025 Festival. All the money we raise goes straight to the MCF for immediate distribution to charities and other worthy causes. No waiting until 2025. All contributions are welcome, no matter how large or small. If you are able to donate on a regular basis, that would be marvellous. Please visit our website at www.2025festival.co.uk and click on the Donate tab.
