Greetings from Illinois Masonic Children’s Assistance Program (IMCAP)!

Your Illinois Masonic Children’s Assistance Program (IMCAP) team hopes you and your loved ones are safe and well in these strange times.

There are many unanswered questions right now about whether students will be able to return to school this fall. We understand that these uncertainties are causing anxiety and frustration for many households across our state as we get closer to August. But IMCAP feels confident that we will be able—with the help of our strong community of Masons—to support and assist the needs of families and students this fall.  

No matter how schools choose to reopen, we are here to support and assist all Illinois Masonic families and students in various ways, including financial assistance with:

  • School Supplies                               

  • School Clothes

  • Masks

  • Tutoring

  • Computers or Internet Access

  • Childcare

  • Counseling

We are reaching out for your support to connect us with children and families in our Illinois Masonic family needing assistance with school related expenses. At IMCAP, we believe that the Masonic family includes children, stepchildren, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and even cousins of Illinois Master Masons—living or deceased.
