Need

For many the personal satisfaction of providing a useful item, a need fulfilled or a physical contribution for the care of a child is unequaled.

Legacy

This mutually beneficial type of donation allows you and your family to continue to fulfill personal needs and life dreams now, while preparing with certainty your wishes for your family and for a charitable legacy of your choosing .

Happy Earth Day! 🌎

Today, and every day, we’re reminded that protecting our planet is not just a responsibility — it’s a privilege. At MHCO, we’re committed to creating real change for a better future 🌱

Whether it’s planting trees, cleaning up our community, or recycling…small actions lead to big change! We try to instill this sense of care into all of our kiddos, and hope that we are creating positive change for generations to come!

Shoutout to Mr. Sneed—who with his wife, contribute their bountiful plant knowledge and green thumbs to help keep our campus beautiful ♥️

Pour with Purpose—MHCO Cup Campaign!

For 150 years, we have relied on donations to continue our mission of caring for youth in North Carolina. Because of generous people like you, we have been able to do so and hope to continue doing so for years to come. As always, there is no us, without you. We would be remiss not to recognize that! ♥️

For new recurring/monthly gifts of $19.95, we will send you a 20 oz insulated tumblr, perfect for hot or cold beverages. It comes with a spill resistant/slide lock lid and is engaged with our Masonic Home logo—which serves as a reminder of your loving and heartfelt support for our kids everytime you use it.

I know right where you're standing. I love that place. That's about where I was at when they dedicated that building Critcher cottage.

Thank you brother God bless you Happy Easter.

Love the picture in the background 🥰

Empowering the next generation, every child deserves a safe environment to grow and thrive. YES to this. Can we make a BIG SIGN that says this? I think our schools and childcare places have forgotten. You guys are awesome.

The Concerned Bikers Association visited MHCO to learn more about the programs and provided a generous donation. These funds will help to provide essential care, education, and opportunities for children who need it most.

The Concerned Bikers Association had donated to the Masonic Home several years ago and wanted to again help youth in the community. The Concerned Bikers Association was impressed with the program and care provided for the children. The CBA seeks to be more involved with MHCO including future charity rides and being a part of events. The CBA members from left to right include Lynne Johnson (Secretary), Deanna Dent. Beverly Whitfield (Treasure), Melvin Smith, David Whitfield (President), Brad Walker, Russ Wilson (Vice President). 

On behalf of everyone at MHCO, we appreciate the Concerned Bikers Association reaching out to not only provide much needed support but wanting to learn more about the mission of the Masonic Home to continue to be supportive of the children. There is no us, without you! ❤️

Awesome ❤️🙏❤️

Thank you for caring about the kids! #GrowingHearts #brighterfutures #mhcocares

We wanted to shout out The 13th Round Boxing Company for being such an awesome steward in our small community! Thank you so much for hosting your monthly fight night and choosing us as your charity! Boxers from all over came and sparred it out, raising $550 for our home!

Not only did the event bring together a wonderful community of people, but their decision to donate the proceeds to MHCO speaks volumes about their kindness and compassion. These funds will help to provide essential care, education, and opportunities for children who need it most.

On behalf of everyone at MHCO, we want you to know how truly appreciative we are of your support. We are so thankful for your partnership and look forward to witnessing all the great things you do for Oxford and beyond! ❤️
