Episode 138: Charity Isn’t Loud (ft. Todd Mayer)

Why is charitable giving so important to us? Giving back and serving those in need is an essential part of putting the principles of Freemasonry into action.This week, we sit down with Todd Mayer to explore the pursuit of something greater than yourself—and the importance of stepping away from our electronic devices to do real things in the world with real people.“Charity is a tangible idea...it’s a tangible way for you to tell other people why you do what you do.”We also discuss how service and charitable events can bring a lodge together, create a meaningful identity, and make a real difference in the community.“The lodges that have successful events know how it’s unified their lodge, and how it’s been a signature to their lodge, and how it’s helped out their community.”Todd Mayer is a member of Anoka Lodge No. 30 and currently serves as District Deputy for the Grand Lodge of Minnesota.
