• The Museum of Our National Heritage and Library provides Masons all over the jurisdiction with information on the history of our country as well as the history of Masonic and other fraternal organizations. The museum consists of the Stanley F. Maxwell Auditorium used for educational and community events, the James Francis Farr Conference Center and the Van Gorden historic library. Traveling exhibits help expand the museum's scope and benefit the brethren who do not live close at hand. To view the museum's own Web site, click here.
  

• Leon M. Abbott Scholarships provide financial support for the continuing education of young men and women from Scottish Rite families and Masonic-related youth groups. Since 1951, more than $3 million has been awarded to students from each state of the Northern Jurisdiction. Freedom, understanding, and brotherhood are dependent upon our ability to reason effectively. That is why the Masonic fraternity, and Scottish Rite in particular, have long been committed to fostering the value of education. The Abbott Scholarships began with a portion of the legacy of the late Leon M. Abbott, 33°,Sovereign Grand Commander from 1921-1932. Each year nearly 400 scholarships are awarded to eligible and deserving students attending accredited colleges, universities, and specialty schools.

• Schizophrenia Fellowships have been supporting schizophrenia research at designated colleges and universities since 1935 by providing fellowships for graduate students interested in the mental health research field. Scottish Rite donates more than $150,000 toward research fellowships each year. Scottish Rite in the Northern Jurisdiction has been in the forefront of the fight against mental illness and schizophrenia, the most prevalent and serious type of mental affliction. Several hundred projects have received Scottish Rite grants totaling more than $21 million. The emphasis is placed on fellowships for graduate students in behavioral science at colleges and universities located within the 15 states of the Northern Masonic Jurisdiction.
