The "cornerstone" of the Masonic Medical Research Institute is our supporters, who make our research possible. That's why our hallmark giving organization is called the Cornerstone Society. 

Consider naming the MMRI in your estate, and leave a legacy for science and medicine, as a member of the Cornerstone Society. 

How the Cornerstone patrons help the MMRI: 

  • Through your bequest or planned gift, leave a legacy of hope for those affected by heart disease and other disorders.
  • Provide the Institute affirmation that its work identifying and battling disease will continue.
  • Depending upon the nature of your bequest, this may even provide you with lifetime income while also helping MMRI (e.g., Charitable Gift Annuity).

Benefits for Cornerstone patrons: 

  • Recognition in MMRI’s Annual Report, on its website, and in other publicly disseminated materials.
  • Invitation to special events.
  • Regular updates on MMRI’s research and progress.
  • Invitation to private tours of the Institute and discussions with our scientists.
  • A welcome letter from our Executive Director and commemorative pin.
