8Aid is the name for one big weekend of fund raising, fun, innovation – more fun – wacky events – and did we mention fun.
It takes place on June 20th, 21st and 22nd and is set to involve the entire Province of Essex – friends, families and anyone else who wants to enjoy themselves to help raise money for eight very worthy charities – but you can give now by donating via this portal.
They all need your money so in June, Freemasons across Essex will be taking part in a whole series of events – I think we mentioned fun.
You can sponsor those taking part or give via this portal – or simply be there to cheer them on.
See you in June but in the mean time look out for 8Aid in your area.
