Dear brothers and sisters
The Grand Lodge of Norway have donated 10.000 USD from our Humanitarian Fond to help the victims of the terrible hurricane in the Philippines
Følgende er sendt til Independent Order of Odd Fellows - Philippines:
The amount are already sent to the Philippines.
We have also asked our sisters and brothers to contribute and I am glad to inform you that they so far have gathered over 35 000 USD to help our sister and brothers in the Philippines so they can be able to help the victims. The money will be sent to the Odd Fellows in the Philippines as soon as possible.
We wish you all luck with your important work and still we see that our old command of the IOOF;- to"visit the sick, relieve the distressed, bury the dead and educate the orphan" is relevant in todays society.
Fraternally in
Friendship, Love and Truth
