A Brother Prepares for a Ride Across America |
|
Brother Brian Stockbridge, Daytime Lodge No. 144, Stratford, is preparing for his bicycle ride from Oregon to Georgia. The 3,500 mile ride will average 116 miles per day from July 4 to August 4 to raise money and awareness for Nevus Outreach. This non-profit organization supports research and families afflicted with Congenital Melanocytic Nevi and Neurocutaneous Melanocytosis, rare conditions Brian's son succumbed to at the young age of seven.
Bro. Brian made a promise to his son that he would take on this feat and this is the year he's going to do it.

In
the state of Connecticut, nearly 1,000 patients are always on waiting
lists for lifesaving organ and tissue transplants. Unfortunately, 65
died last year, still waiting for that organ which could have saved or
significantly improved their lives. Nationwide, that waiting list for
organs exceeds 100,000.
The mission of the Connecticut Freemasons Organ and Tissue Donor Awareness Program
is to increase the number of available donors by increasing the number
of Connecticut residents signed up with the registry of Connecticut
State Motor Vehicle Department. Click here
to change your status with the Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicles
. Currently, only 35% of licensed drivers are registered with the program.
Approximately 60% of the organs transplanted each year are deceased
organs, which come from the organ registry.
IMPORTANT:
We are NOT trained medical or organ procurement staff. We can ONLY
provide materials. Any specific questions regarding transplantation
should be directed to LifeChoice Donor Services or New England Organ Bank
.

The Grand Lodge of Connecticut welcomes "Freemason Information " and looks forward to their review. The alphabetical listing starts with the Grand Lodge of Alabama, followed by the Grand Lodge of Alaska and the Grand Lodge of Connecticut should not be too far in the future.
