I really am impressed with this line. Seriously I believe almost every person should show the same attitude

If it really is so. Then how do you manage to raise the funds? No help can be done without money. and what about the workers? Do they work for free? I mean in their spare times?

I really don't see what you mean by your post . We raise funds for our charities by having fund raisers . Members donate their own money , and their time when they have it to spare . Some money from the dues we pay to our different appendant bodies in Masonry go to charities .

Is this what your looking for ?

I am in agreement with Ashlar, If that is what you are looking for then, you have the answer, if it is not, we would need to know what are you looking for. Fundraisers are performed by the members, there is no payment for working at these fund raisers. The monies are for charitable purposes and are given to deserving individuals and groups without expectation of reimbursement.

To answer the original question, I've never brought up religion with members, as it is not allowed. To be even more blunt, I just don't care what my Brothers religion is.

With that said, the few people whose religion I do know are of Christian faith.
