Overview

Mission

To promote harmony and fraternal and social relations among the lodges of the queens masonic districts in the jurisdiction of the grand lodge of free and accepted masons of the state of New York

What it reported doing in 2024

To promote the principles of freemasonry generally, and the help, aid and assistance of worthy charities, meet present and future requests for masonic aid and to unite the brethren in closer ties of friendship and social intercourse.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
