Should all Freemasons actively deliver portions of their charitable efforts to non-Masonic causes?
While there is no explicit requirement for all Freemasons to actively deliver portions of their charitable efforts to non-Masonic causes, the fraternity as a whole is committed to significant charitable work, including substantial support for non-Masonic causes. Freemasonry is known for its extensive charity work, with organizations like the Shriners donating millions to children's hospitals and the Masonic Charitable Foundation providing grants for various needs, including support for non-Masonic charities such as Dementia UK and the Royal College of Surgeons. This indicates that a significant portion of their charitable efforts are already directed towards non-Masonic causes. The emphasis on community service and philanthropy within Freemasonry suggests that many members are already engaged in delivering portions of their efforts towards broader societal benefits.
