DISASTER APPEAL

Helping Western Australians 

when they need it most

The Grand Master’s Disaster Appeal is a perpetual fund established in 2021 by Masonic Foundation for aiding Western Australians in need as a result of crisis and disastrous events. The purpose is to enable the Foundation to respond quickly to these events with aid for those in immediate need, and to provide for those not helped by other community fundraising initiatives. Since 2021 we’ve responded with support for:

  • Ex-tropical Cyclone Ellie (2023)
  • Tropical Cyclone Seroja (2021)

The Appeal is coordinated by Masonic Foundation, a registered charity established by the Freemasons in Western Australia which has a long history of funding the recovery efforts from major disasters including:

  • Wooroloo bushfires (2020)
  • Waroona-Yarloop bushfires (2016)
  • Esperance bushfires (2015)
  • Black Saturday bushfires (2009)

We really value the support of all the members of the Freemasons and thank them for the way they are supporting, and partnering with the Salvation Army in making a positive difference in the lives of Australians, and Australian communities.
