The major responsibility of the Assistant Rabban is the coordination of all events concerned with raising funds for our Shrine Hospitals for Children. Due to increased medical costs to our world-class system of 22 pediatric hospitals, Moslah has expanded our Hospital Fund Drive activities significantly through the years. We are constantly striving to increase the amount of money sent to our hospitals to provide expert medical care to children with orthopedic problems, burns and spinal cord injuries regardless of the patient’s ability to pay.

Our first event of the year is IHOP’s National Pancake Day. We man local IHOP stores in support of National Pancake Day. On this day, I-HOP (International House of Pancake Restaurant) gives pancakes away in exchange for a donation to Shriners Hospitals for Children.

Our original Shriner’s Hospital fund raiser is our Store Front and Street Corner collections, usually held the first Friday and Saturday in May.

The amount of money Moslah sends to our Shrine Hospitals for Children, the “World’s Greatest Philanthropy”, would not be possible without the dedication and hard work of our Units, Shrine Clubs, Nobility and their Ladies. This dedication is only a part of what makes Moslah the pride of Shrine Centers in North America. As Assistant Rabban, I would like to extend a personal “Thank You” to all who volunteer their time and money to this worthy cause.
