Freemasons and their families of Fort Winnebago Masonic Lodge (No. 33) in Portage hosted a very successful “Trees and Treasures” this past holiday season. Profound thanks goes out to the generous donors who donated 15 trees and the gifts under each tree. The community participated by purchasing hundreds of raffle tickets.
The Lodge was able to donate 277 pounds of food and $792 to the Portage Food Pantry and $1,250 to The Harbor Recovery Center. They also added $1,250 to the Fort Winnebago Masonic scholarship fund.
They are already looking forward to the second year of Trees and Treasures this fall.
