We as Shrine Masons belong to an organization that was founded in New York City in 1872 by two Masons that felt there was a need to have a fun side of Masonry, and thus the Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine of North America was established. In later years the Orthepedic  Hospitals and Burn Institutions were established as charities of our order.

Shaddai Shriners are the guys participating in colorful parades wearing distinctive Red Fezzes, but helping children is what we are really all about. For with our Caring Hearts, we provide the funding for those helping hands, that mend a child's body, so they can have a better quality of life. Wouldn't it be great to belong to such a great organization?
