Charity

Matthew John Whittall Lodge's biggest charity event is held every December during the holidays where we've been selling Christmas trees to support our Coats for Kids Program - Shrewsbury Schools. We have been doing this since 2009. 100% of all proceeds go directly to purchasing coats for school age children in need of a winter coat. These children are identified through our connections with the local school nurses as they relay the size/type of coats to be purchased. The generosity of both the Brethren of the Masonic Lodge and the community have helped make this possible., where we have averaged over 40 coats provided per year. Any remaining proceeds go directly to a charity of our choice, some of which are listed below.
