Scottish Rite Foundation, Southern Jurisdiction, U.S.A., Inc.

The Supreme Council, 33°, created the Scottish Rite Foundation, Southern Jurisdiction, U.S.A., Inc. (SRF), to support philanthropic endeavors. Each year, through the Development Office, the Supreme Council seeks donations for the Scottish Rite Foundation’s four major programs: 


  1. RiteCare Scottish Rite Childhood Language Program (SRCLP)
  2. Scholarships,
  3. Grants, and
  4. National Disaster Relief.

The SRF provides start-up funding for new SRCLP facilities and lends support to operations of existing facilities. We have SRCLP facilities in each state in the Southern Jurisdiction and more are in the planning stages.

The SRF offers several scholarships for higher education for students seeking a college degree or vocational license. Our scholarship programs encourage the pursuit of higher learning in all categories, including the study of speech pathology and education. The goal of our grants program is to assist Masonic appendant bodies and Masonic Youth organizations by providing funding for worthwhile programs that could not be undertaken without financial assistance.

The SRF is also dedicated to helping victims of natural disasters such as fires, floods, earthquakes, and hurricanes. Through the SRF, the Supreme Council provides direct relief to disaster victims and works with other Masonic groups to provide additional assistance.
