The
ALOHA SHRINERS
We are focused on our Mission of “Shriners…Having
Fun and helping Kids” in our Jurisdiction that covers the Islands of
Hawaii, all Pacific Islands and Pacific Rim Nations.
Our Aloha Temple, or principal office, is located in Honolulu with numerous Shrine Clubs throughout Hawaii and the entire jurisdiction. Its leadership consists of an annually elected Divan (Board) with the Potentate serving at its helm. Our Membership Committee’s goal is to exceed 2,000 active Nobles.
The Membership Committee is focused on meeting the Recruitment, Retention and Restoration needs through dedicated Nobles, serving as Membership Ambassadors in many, (not yet all) Blue Lodges. Our Membership Ambassadors believe that “Every Mason should be a Noble.”
Celebrating Family is the way of a Noble
The ALOHA SHRINERS celebrate family life and reinforce individual commitment to family, and thereby strengthen our family which forms the foundation of the “Greatest Philanthropy on Earth.”
Membership is a year-long celebration and participation in Fun Events, Activities and Programs planned and held throughout the year are enjoyed by our Shriners Kids (our patients) and all Nobles with their extended families.
These Fun Events, Activities and Programs are being created and coordinated by our many Shrine Clubs or Units such as the Aloha Patrol, Clowns, Greeters, Legion of Honor, Motor Corp. (Bikes), Potentate’s Band (Big Band Orchestra), Provost Guard, Purveyors, Rajah Corp, Temple Hawaiian Musicians, etc.. Proceeds from Fundraising programs, Donations or Bequests are dedicated to our Philanthropy to support the Honolulu Shriners Hospital Patient Transportation Fund or its Capital Fund.
At the Shriners Hospitals for Children "Every Step is a Victory”. By involving our Nobles and our community-at-large in a very personal way, that becomes the life of a true Philanthropist.
Enjoy many opportunities to find personal fulfillment and satisfaction through supporting Shriners Hospitals for Children.
