Under the 1900 Corporate Charter, the Grand Lodge of Texas was formed for charitable and benevolent purposes, and to cement bonds of good fellowship and brotherly love among its members and adherents, and to practice the art of Ancient Free and Accepted Masonry as has been done from time immemorial.

The greatest investment in our collective society is in education and in our younger generation. For my Blue Envelope Charity Appeal this year, I have selected the Texas Masonic Charities Foundation (TxMCF) Scholarship Fund and Texas Masonic Youth, e.g., DeMolay International and International Order of the Rainbow for Girls.

Since its inception, the TMCF and the constituent lodges of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Texas have provided millions in funds to more than 20,000 Texas High School students. DeMolay International is an Order of young men, who we hope will be future members in the future, and I am convinced these young men are learning the leadership attributes that our society and fraternity need for future generations. Our Rainbow Girls are the future wives of Texas Masons, and they continue to work tirelessly by the same precepts that we do.

The TxMCF, DeMolay International, and International Order of Rainbow for Girls are worthy of our charity and I hope that you will support me in giving to them by donating to my Blue Envelope Charity Appeal.

Sincerely & Fraternally
