We are very pleased to announce that the Foundation for the Ohio Masonic Home has a new look and a shortened name. What was formerly known as The Ohio Masonic Home Benevolent Endowment Foundation is now doing business as The Ohio Masonic Home Foundation. Our legal name will remain the same as filed with the Secretary of State, but other than that our messaging materials will bear the new logo and reflect our new name.
We see this as an important and great opportunity to clearly state the significant charitable work of the Foundation. For too long, we have all struggled and stumbled through trying to say and write a very long name. In the process, the message frequently was lost before the previous name was spoken.
These are exciting and dynamic times at the Ohio Masonic Foundation. Our recent efforts have been to clearly define our charitable causes and the immediate needs we have to raise dollars. We have become much more active in fund raising locally, regionally and statewide. We know that we cannot merely rely on the long standing generosity of Ohio Freemasons without making a clear case statement for our needs and providing multiple opportunities and means by which to give.
With this new look comes a comprehensive marketing and messaging plan, along with a vibrant and focused, outcome measured fund development plan. Donors will be given the option to designate their gifts to our core charitable causes which include Masonic Care, Resident Care and Memory Care. We pledge that your gift will always be used for the purpose that it was given. Please feel free to ask questions. My expectation of all Foundation Staff is that you will receive prompt, truthful and forthright answers.
In a nutshell, you are going to be seeing and hearing from the Ohio Masonic Home Foundation often. Our active efforts will be to tell you the important stories about our charitable work and to give you numerous and easy ways to be involved in the great work and largest expression of service and philanthropy for Ohio Freemasons.
Thank you for your continued gifts. We hope you like our new look!
