Who are Shriners?
The Shrine was founded in 1872 by a group of 13 men
belonging to the Masonic Order. It was originally
established to provide fun and fellowship for its members.
But as the organization grew, its members decided to
dedicate their efforts to helping others by establishing an
official Shrine philanthropy -- a network of specialized
hospitals that have provided expert medical care to more
than 575,000 children, free of charge.
Since the first Shriners Hospital opened in 1922, the Shrine has supported
what has come to be known as the "World's Greatest
Philanthropy." The Shrine and its 22 hospitals, while
maintaining separate legal and financial identities, are
linked through the Shrine's continuing support of Shriners
Hospitals.

The best known symbol of Shrinedom is the
distinctive red fez that Shriners wear at official
functions. Because Shriners are men who enjoy life, fun is a
large part of the Shrine and the activities that help
support the Shrine's philanthropy. Most Shrine Temples
sponsor Shrine Clubs and special units, such as the motor
corps, band or clown units and many other units of interest.
They share in the camaraderie, deep friendships and good
fellowship that are all part of being a Shriner.
