The Grand Lodge of New York through its Trustees of the Masonic Hall and Asylum established a scholarship in 1996. The Education Assistance Committee of Grand Lodge administers this scholarship program for post high school level students. The effort is directed at the sons, daughters, grandsons and granddaughters of Master Masons in good standing, belonging to Lodges within the jurisdiction of the Grand Lodge of New York.
Awards totaling over $500,000 are made annually based upon academic achievement, community involvement and financial need. Applications for scholarship assistance are available from all Lodge Secretaries, District Deputy Grand Masters and may be downloaded from this site ( see “forms†) or the Empire State Mason web site, www.ESMason.com. All applications must be complete and postmarked by April 1, including the signature of the Master and Secretary of the Lodge and be embossed with the Lodge seal.
