SPECIAL APPEAL FOR FUNDS

     Your gift in support of your local Scottish Rite Childhood Language Center should be mailed directly to that Language Center which deposits and acknowledges your donation.

     Your contributions forwarded in the enclosed donation envelope will go directly to the Foundation for: our Childhood Language Center Program, Scholarships, and other Charitable Programs.  The Foundation supports new Scottish Rite Childhood Language facilities with a yearly subsidy of $15,000 for the first three years of operation.  These Charitable Programs supported by the Foundation are a substantial drain on our resources.

     Thus, the foundation is the lifeblood of our California Scottish Rite charities.  We appreciate your understanding and support of our Charitable Programs.  Without your contributions to the California Scottish Rite Foundation, these Charitable Programs would not exist.

     You may give IN HONOR OF or IN MEMORY OF a selected individual. This donation will be acknowledged to the Honoree or to the party named by you on an IN MEMORY OF donation.  The amount of the donation will remain private and will only appear on your donation acknowledgement.

Your charitable gifts are tax deductible under Federal and State Rulings.

Our Taxpayer ID# with the IRS is #94-6078728.
