Dear Brethren and Friends,
As I reflect on our Spring Edition, I’m reminded of the meaningful impact we make together through The Ohio Masonic Communities Foundation. Every story speaks to compassion, connection, and community—and none of it happens without you.
From joyful SPRIG gatherings filled with laughter and creativity to the simple beauty of flowers brightening residents’ days, these moments bring comfort, belonging, and joy. They may seem small, but they truly enrich lives.
At the heart of our mission is a promise: to care for Masons and their families at every stage of life. Whether through our resource center, offering guidance in difficult times, or providing daily support in our communities, your generosity ensures no one is ever alone. Stories like Annette’s (see page 10) show the difference you make, providing both immediate relief and lasting stability. The Schooley family’s experience reminds us how timely help can restore safety and independence. These are not isolated moments, but part of the lasting impact you make possible.
We look forward to connecting with you at our upcoming Golf Classic and Celebration Gala events. These are opportunities to share purpose and celebrate all we can accomplish together.
Thank you for your kindness. Because of you, this work continues.
Fraternally,
Jay Dettorre
Executive Director, The Ohio Masonic Communities Foundation
