When you support California Masonic charities, you are making a profound difference for families and communities throughout the state. Our fraternity champions public education and provides industry-leading care for vulnerable seniors and families. Donating a legacy gift to our Masonic charities changes lives.
Additionally, a legacy gift can help you achieve your personal, financial, and estate planning goals. In some cases, for example, a legacy gift can provide the donor with an income for life as well as a charitable income tax deduction.
The simplest way to make a legacy gift is through a bequest, but there are a variety of giving options available, such as trusts and annuities. The method you choose will depend on your personal circumstances and needs. The information provided here will help you determine the best way to make the most of your gift, both financially and philanthropically. As with all tax and estate planning, please consult your attorney and/or tax advisor for additional advice and expertise.
Cornerstone Society
The Cornerstone Society celebrates donors who leave a legacy gift to Freemasonry by including the Masons of California in their wills or estate plans. A legacy gift to the Masonic Homes of California or the California Masonic Foundation helps ensure the future of California Freemasonry for all time. We are grateful for the support of our Cornerstone Society members.
If you have already included a Masonic charity in your estate plans, please let us know. We will ensure that your intentions are properly carried out and will be pleased to include you as a member of our Cornerstone Society. Please contact us to learn more.
Thank you to our generous donors. The list below recognizes members of our Cornerstone Society as of the 2015-16 fiscal year.
