Shriners International
Every day, Shriners are making a difference.
When a toddler from Mexico became dangerously ill after being bitten by a venomous spider, Shriners from temples nearly 3,000 miles apart rallied to help ensure he would get the specialized care he needed. Read the story in Shriner Magazine.

Shriners Children's New England
John J. Edwards Jr., LNHA, of Purling, New York, has been elected Chairman of the Board of Governors for Shriners Children's New England.
John has been a Board Member since 2016, joining the executive committee in 2021 as vice chairman.
John was first introduced to the work of the Shriners in 1998. He instantly fell in love with the Shriners Children's mission and jumped at the opportunity to join the fraternity that supports it. He became a Ziyara Shriner, based in Oneida County, New York, where he served as ritual director for many years.
As chairman, John plans to focus on supporting the talented staff at Shriners Children's New England. He will maintain open lines of communication between the staff and the Board, especially as they navigate the location's new identity as a licensed outpatient facility.
