Wisconsin Masonic Foundation and Masonic Lodge Partnership

Since inception of Project ADAM, we have worked closely with Freemasons and their Lodges across the state to fund AED equipment projects in schools. Using a matching grant process:.

• An interested Masonic Lodge supports a school by raising funds to cover half the cost of an AED unit,
• Eligible projects are completely funded by the Wisconsin Masonic Foundation, up to $800,
• A check is presented by the Lodge to the school for the AED unit.

In 2019, we hit the $1 Million Contribution Mark of the Wisconsin Masonic Lodges and Masonic Foundation placing AEDs in Wisconsin schools since partnership began in 1999!

How to get started:

• Locate a Masonic Lodge near the school in need.
• Contact Project ADAM Wisconsin and they will help put you in touch with a nearby interested Lodge.
