COMMUNITY SUPPORT
STEP (St. Louis Park Emergency Program)

Acacia Chapter sponsored a food drive on Saturday, February 20, 2021, to benefit STEP. The food drive was promoted on Next Door and in two press releases in the St. Louis Park/Hopkins “Sun Sailor” weekly newspaper, as well as through the Frank Lundberg American Legion Post which leases space at the Masonic Center in St. Louis Park. The community, chapter and Templar Lodge were very generous in supporting the effort by donating 718 pounds of food and other supplies, as well as $960 in monetary donations. Everyone who brought a donation received a small bottle of OES logoed hand sanitizer and one community member won the drawing for a $25 gift certificate to the Legion which was donated by the chapter.
