The Florida Foundation
The Florida Foundation issues five scholarships annually to graduating high school seniors in Florida. Local lodges also are active in issuing scholarships within the boundaries of their individual unit.
The Foundation also donates to charities, such as the cancer fund, Alzheimer’s fund, Autism and Cooley’s Anemia.

The Commission for Social Justice strives to promote our Italian heritage and culture while dealing with issues of defamation, bias and bigotry.
The Commission is particularly concerned with eliminating false and discriminatory portrayals of Italian Americans.
