The Florence Lodge 281 Foundation was incorporated as a 501(c)(3) non-profit in 2014 as the philanthropic arm of Florence Lodge #281. Our mission is:

• To provide support for community charitable projects in greater Omaha benefitting youth and adults, including the Child Indentification Program (ChIP), scholarship programs, and youth programs.

• To make financial gifts to 501(c)(3) organizations whose mission aligns with the goals of the Florence Lodge 281 Foundation.

Since the inception, Florence Lodge 281 Foundation has been proud to donate approximately $2,000 each year to our future leaders through scholarships, as well as support for non-profits, including the Omaha Home for Boys, the Masonic-Eastern Star Home for Children, and the Scottish Rite Foundation of Omaha’s RiteCare Speech and Langauge Clinics.

Our Federal tax id is: 43-1591643, and donations may be tax-deductible to the full extent allowed by law.
