Improving lives in Maine through charity and good works
In early 2021, the Foundation announced a new initiative called ‘MAC – Masons Assisting Communities’.
In partnership with the 177 Masonic Lodges located throughout Maine, the Foundation expanded its community focused Matching Grants Program.
Under this new initiative – MAC – the Foundation saw its matching grants program grow over 100%!
Maine Masons have always been committed to helping local community organizations accomplish their goals – whether that is an extra set of hands to employ their time and talents or a form of financial support.
This matching grants initiative – MAC
Masons Assisting Communities – seeks to encourage and empower Maine Masons to do even more locally and to bring awareness to their inspiring efforts.

The Institute’s vision is to build scientific teams that can combine molecular biology, chemistry, computation, technology and engineering to create novel approaches to understanding and deciphering causes of disease. Using this knowledge, we will advance basic research to clinical application, therapeutics and cures. To this end, the Institute will foster an environment of creativity, risk-taking, and open sharing of data and research. Finally, this new model will seek collaborations, both within the Institute and worldwide, in our mission to combat disease.
