Masonic Foundation

Masonic Foundation helps vulnerable people in times of crisis to get back on their feet, and provides support to individuals and charities that contribute to our vision of a caring and supportive WA community.

From humble origins in 1901 we began with providing accomodation for WA war widows and orphans, and today, through our Emergency Assistance Grants and National Disaster Recovery Appeal, we still provide immediate help to vulnerable people when they are in desperate need of the basics; shelter, food, clothing and medical care.

How Masonic Foundation supports the community

Today, our vision has grown to include working toward a brighter future for WA; our Education Scholarship programme is providing financial assistance for tertiary students, who we’ll rely on to solve the problems that our children, and future generations will face. Our coordinated fundraising for other WA charities is helping them to realise their own visions, and improve the lives of vulnerable people. We have recently supported charitable organisations including Fiona Wood Foundation, WA Young Achiever Awards, UN Youth Australia, Mens Sheds WA, 16th Battalion Foundation, Variety WA, Tournament of Minds and Camp Quality.

Masonic Charity Outlets

Masonic Charity Outlet (MCO) is an initiative of Masonic Foundation and they’re not your typical Op-Shop! With a focus on quality recycled and donated furniture, homewares and fashion displayed in a contemporary shopping environment, MCO stores aim to provide an enjoyable shopping experience at a fraction of the price.

Proceeds from sales at MCO go directly to Masonic Foundation to allow us to grow our support for Western Australian Communities, Charities and Individuals. MCO is always on the lookout for volunteer shop staff, collectors, sorters and donations. Find out more on MCO website.
