One of the charities that we have been supporting recently is Autismo Baleares.
Autismo Baleares works to create decent, inclusive and updated Health, Education and Social Services. Achieving acceptance and promoting neurodiversity is our goal and we believe that together we can do it better. Being part of a tribe of experienced families, professionals and volunteer specialists where uniting and crossing experiences is essential to navigate and enjoy atypical motherhood/fatherhood.
The lodge was very pleased to make a further donation of 1436.21 euro to support them in their work. Making a total of more than 3000 euros in the past year.
The cheque was received by Ms. Emma Jarvie on behalf of the association.

The work done by Autismo Baleares was brought to the attention of Ramon Llull lodge by one of its members, David Jarvie, earlier in the year and it was decided that we should devote our remaining meeting to raising money for the association.
Collections in the lodge, functions outside the lodge and donations were all put together and the presentation of a cheque for 1700 euros was made by the Worshipful Master, Thomas Sinclair, at the masonic hall in Palma to Ela Larkin, president of the association and Emma Jarvie, their secretary.
Ela and Emma explained to the members of the lodge, and visitors from Scotland, the work that the association does and how the money being donated would help them with their work on future projects.
The masons all found the talk very interesting and informative and hoped that we would be able to help again in the future.
