My lodge could definitely use the $60K in the kitty a lot more than they can the nothing we've seen the last 3 years...
I've seen some post here that there endowment was $500. Is it $500 or $700 this year?
Endowments in Texas are set by the individual lodges, but have a minimum amount of $500. Lodges can change the amount once a year at the meeting they elect officers at.
So in may case I paid $700. Does that mean that our local lodge was able to keep the $200?
Very well said. 100% correct. Are you part of Grand Lodge or Just very well informed?
I bought my endowment right after I was raised.
This thread reminds me that I need to get over there and give some money for my per captia!
You are right Robert. Most Endowed Members are inactive and not aware that the Lodges are not recieving any money for their endowment. This year we sent out a letter explaining the situation and many Brothers responded with a generous donation. Thank You for thinking of Your Lodge.
