The Grand Lodge Of Mark Master Masons' Fund Of Benevolence gives practical, member-centered support to Mark Masons, Knights Templar, Secret Monitor petitioners, and their families, while also funding select charitable projects and partner organizations. A notable share of its giving goes to hardship relief, bursaries, and capital needs such as household repairs, mobility aids, and children’s charities. It also supports some external worthy causes through structured programs and often channels support through internal petitions or affiliated provincial/divisional fundraising rather than open competition.
Primarily petition-based and program-specific, with grants assessed through committee review; some funds are distributed annually or via match-funding arrangements. Grant sizes vary by program, from modest individual hardship support to capital grants and bursaries, with some offerings explicitly capped or ringfenced. Several programs are invite-only or routed through provincial/divisional structures, so giving is relationship-driven rather than through broad open calls.

Approach through the relevant Masonic structure or named fund rather than a general public application portal. Check eligibility carefully: many grants are limited to members, families, petitioners, or affiliated charities, and some programs do not accept unsolicited proposals. Where applicable, prepare a clear petition or divisional request showing need, impact, and alignment with the specific fund’s criteria.
