Masons’ gifts to schools
Robert Burns Masonic Lodge in Gainesville has awarded another round of gifts to Dora and Gainesville schools through its Needy Child partnership with the Missouri Masonic Home. Gifts given to the Lodge for the program and funds raised through its sales of popcorn at school events are matched by the Masonic Home. The Masons welcome donations to the charity, which supports the backpack program operated by the Youth Empowerment Program at Gainesville School and the snack pack program at Dora School. The latest $400 gifts to each school brought the totals for the year to $1,206 at Gainesville and $1,210 at Dora. To contribute funds to be matched for the program, make checks payable to Robert Burns #496 AF & AM and mail c/o Bobby Grisham, P.O. Box 223, Ga
