Ancient Free & Accepted Masons

Public charity · Grantmaker East Hampton, CT EIN: 06-6050658

Freemasonry is a charitable, benevolent, educational and religious society. Charitable in that it is not organized for profit but for the promotion of the welfare and happiness of mankind; benevolent in that it teaches and exemplifies altruism as a duty; educational in that it teaches by ceremonies a system of morality and brotherhood; religious in that it teaches monotheism and a reverence for god, by whatever name. Freemasonry impresses upon its members the principles of personal righteousness and personal responsibility, enlightens them as to those things which make for human welfare, and inspires them with that feeling of charity, or goodwill, towards all mankind which will move them to translate principle and conviction into action.
