 Grand Master’s Toodyay Disaster Appeal

My dear brethren, you have all heard of the dreadful plight of our fellow Western Australians in the aftermath of the tragic Toodyay fires. These are people and families that will be personally known or even closely related to our own members that need our urgent help.

There has been a  great deal communicated by the media about the generosity of the community to the victims of this disaster, but as anyone who has survived a natural disaster will tell you, there has never been an instance where a victim has been offered to much practical help. Long after all the publicity and talk has finished, people will still be struggling to rebuild both their lives and their homes.

These disasters are life altering experiences that will affect every aspect of day to day living for many years into the future. No amount of financial assistance can compensate for that level of trauma but it is within our power to make the transition to a normal life alot easier.                                                                                    

I am asking you, brethren, to consider our fellow citizens as very worthy recipients of your individual or collective cash donations.  If you feel you, or your Lodge, is able to support this appeal please make cheques payable to: 'Grand Lodge of WA' and on the reverse of the cheque 'Disaster Appeal', and forward to Grand Lodge, PO Box 3121, Adelaide Terrace, Perth 6832.

Thank you brethren and as always you know your donations will be gratefully received and faithfully applied.

MW Bro T F (Frank) Hayes
GRAND MASTER
