In order to provide a permanent funding source, many millions of dollars will be needed. Our campaign goal is $5,000,000 divided into two phases of $2,500,000 each resulting in an initial corpus of $5,000,000 from which The Masonry Foundation can access the interest to fund critical industry initiatives.
Goal: $5,000,000
