The mission of the Kansas Masonic Foundation is to encourage philanthropy from Kansas Masons, their family and friends for charitable, educational and scientific programs as established by the Board of Directors. Contributions and gifts will be actively solicited. Will bequests and other Planned Giving programs will be available and encouraged.
The Kansas Masonic Foundation was established in 1966 as a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization for the purpose of expanding Masonic Philanthropy in the fields of charitable, educational and scientific programs. The Foundation is totally funded by voluntary gifts and endowments from Kansas Masons, their families and friends. No portion of the dues of any Masonic body goes to the Foundation.
Since 1974, the Kansas Masonic Foundation has been making annual grants to the Kansas Masonic Cancer Research Institute at the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City, Kansas. These grants began at first to assist in the care of cancer patients. The Foundation changed its direction in 1992 when the grants assisted cancer research. Well more than $20 million dollars have been donated by Kansas Masons for cancer research and care since 1974. To learn more about Kansas Masonic Foundation, please visit each link in this Web Site.
