Virtual Meetings helping to raise money for the MCF

Inspired by the work of the Masonic Charitable Foundation, Severn Lodge No. 5583 members desireD to support them by raising money as part of their participation in Masonic COVID19 Appeal.

Severn Lodge have initiated weekly Zoom “Virtual” Lodge Meetings. Several brethren from other local Lodges have commented on how intrigued they are by Severn’s “Virtual” meetings and that maybe it's something other Lodge’s in Worcestershire Province might be interested in emulating.

Severn’s “Virtual” meetings were primarily setup to check on everyone during the lockdown, and to Toast Absent Brethren, Friends and Family.

During the hour long meeting a fun quiz is held, five volunteer members each ask 4 general knowledge questions and 1 specific masonic question. A link to Everyday Hero’s page has been setup by the Charity Steward to enable brethren to directly donate their entry fees and donations to the MCF. The current total donated, which includes Gift Aid is £361.25. Well done Brethren, keep up the good work!
