September 6, 2011 MasoniCHIP Letter to Hamilton District A     Brethren, We have an opportunity to ... "Help the Children of Ontario!"     On behalf of our D.D.G.M., R.W.Bro. Nick Ellis, May I Offer you an opportunity?     I know you are aware of the fine work done by the masoniCHIP programme. You know the organization. You know the men involved and , You know the people that are helped, they are of course the Children of Ontario. But did you know that over 42,000 "masonicCHIP KITS" have been distributed since this wonderful programme began in our jurisdiction.     I now offer you the opportunity and privilege to become one of those men, to become part of this important programme.     There is nothing more disturbing or disheartening then the news of a missing child. The masoniCHIP "KIT" provided free to each family assists law enforcement agencies to bring missing children home. This can not be done without your help and support.     Children are carefree, not careless. Their innocence is our responsibility. We must do our Masonic best to build and protect our community. Those children are the future. Your help is needed to provide these KITS to the families of Ontario.     Your lodge can help by forming a committee to organize a masoniCHIP Clinic in your area. Would you consider chairing that committee? Call me for the; Who, What, When, Where, and Why.     I realize many of you are too busy to sit on a committee, or possibly committee work is just not your bag. Therefore, if you have not yet chosen your masonic charity for this year please bring your cheque book to lodge, and donate to this most worthy cause. Tax receipts will be issued. Cash should be hand delivered. Cheques should be made out to: Masonic Foundation of Ontario, Project #2451 Beach Lodge, Masonic Temple, 19 Dawson St Stoney Creek, Ontario, Canada, L8G 3T5 We can all help in our own way, but help we must !      Each donation, regardless of the amount, is a step closer to "Helping The Children of Ontario".      For more Information... www.masonichip.ca www.masonicfoundation.on.ca www.hamiltondistrictamasons.org     Help us "CHIP" away at this endeavour.     Your Friend and Brother,        Larry Hinkley,     Chairman, Hamilton District A Masonic Foundation of Ontario and, Masonic Chip Fund Raiser
