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 over $7.3 million dollars have been donated by
Kansas Masons for cancer research and care since 1974. To learn more
