On the first day of Christmas, Solomon gave to me... an Entered Apprentice apron!✨

This simple garment, the first step on our journey, symbolises the innocence and purity of intention with which we begin our journey into Freemasonry. It's a reminder to approach our education with an open mind and a humble heart, just as a new initiate enters the Lodge room for the very first time.

And just like the festive season, it's a time of new beginnings and renewed hope. So, let's raise a glass to those taking their first steps into the mysteries of Freemasonry! 🥂

The Fund is set up as a Singapore Trust and is registered as a charity with the Commissioner of Charities, Singapore.

The Patron of the Fund is The District Grand Master of the Eastern Archipelago.

Even after Singapore government subsidies, there are parents that struggle to pay for fees and other expenses of educating their children, particularly in respect of higher education. The result is that a number of children drop out of the education system early and never achieve their maximum potential. Some will obtain lower grade jobs others may end up unemployed and in some cases as problem members of society.

The Fund will work with educational establishments to identify those students that are needy and are unable to find funds from other sources.

We will also work with registered charities, particularly those that help disadvantaged children and young people to overcome the barriers they face to achieving the best possible start in life.

Finally, we will consider individual applications via Masonic referrals of educational financial assistance for needy students.

Have you anything to give in the cause of Charity?

While we, Freemasons, are known for our charitable giving, the Rite of Destitution delves deeper, to show us that true generosity goes beyond monetary charity.💰

It is about offering a shoulder to lean on, a listening ear, and unwavering support to those in need, even if their wallets are full.
