Elsie's Story
Elsie* is a typical example of the type of person we encourage to contact Freemasonry Cares.
A year after the death of her husband Elsie was still struggling to pay back the cost of the funeral. When her boiler broke she knew her limited income would not be enough to cover the cost of a replacement so she decided to approach the central Masonic Charities for help. When she explained why she needed help Elsie was surprised that as well as paying for a replacement boiler, the Charities were also able to assist with the outstanding expenses from her husband’s funeral and provide her with a grant towards some of her essential everyday living costs.
