Following a review in June 2025, FFV has sharpened the focus of our Community Grants. For this years’ Community Grant program (2025), our two key focus areas will be Education and Community Development.

Emerge Australia, an organisation supporting individuals with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) and Long COVID, has received essential support from the FFV and St Andrews in the South Lodge.

Grants, giving, and a warm welcome from our new CEO.

Through grant funding and grassroots fundraising efforts, the Whittlesea Masonic Lodge has provided much-needed financial support to local organisations, making a tangible difference to vital services in the area.

FFV held two Scholarship Presentation Evenings during April and May, with more than 270 attendees coming together to celebrate the achievements of around 114 remarkable students.
