Welcome to El Zaribah Shrine |
Working in Harmony
Putting Shrine Kids First
It is my distinct honor and privilege to have the opportunity to serve El Zaribah Shriners as our 113th Potentate. Shriners International is a fraternity with the purpose of “Fun and Fellowship” and the cause of supporting our Shriners Hospitals for Children. This is a network of hospitals across North America specializing in Orthopedic, Burn, Spinal Cord Injury and Cleft Lip and Palate Treatment. This care is provided at no charge to our patients or their families. We affectionately refer to our hospitals as the “Worlds Greatest Philanthropy.”
Currently, El Zaribah Shriners support over 2,000 children in our hospital system. Admission to a Shriners Hospital is based on medical need. All children, up to the age of 18, are eligible for admission if they can benefit from the specialized services available at Shriners Hospitals. If you know of a child that might benefit from our hospitals, please contact us.
While Shriners International is a fraternity, our Ladies play an integral part. We are a family that works together to have fun and fellowship in supporting our cause. If you are interested in membership or just want to help our cause, please contact us. The more the merrier! ...see Jim's entire letter
