The Fairfax Optimist/Kiwanis Baseball Field Project and the Rock Port Youth Activities Association each recently received a check for $45,000 to help with their baseball and softball complexes. This was made possible through the local chapters of the Masonic Lodge. Both Rock Port and Fairfax Lodges submitted an application on behalf of the organizations and sent in $15,000 to receive $45,000. The Creating-A-Partnership (CAP) Program provides matching funds for Lodges and Chapters to help children in need within their communities. In 2022, the Masonic Home and participating lodges and chapters provided $777,749 in assistance to help nearly 34,662 children statewide.
