We encourage fellowship amongst our members by offering a wide variety of activities at our Lodge, such as our friday night fish fry, bingo nights, comedy nights, holiday celebrations for Lodge members, band nights, hall rentals for Lodge members, etc.... activities are conducted by committee members and volunteers, whom are members of the Moose Lodge 606. These activities are done at the Lodge and about 75 percent of our time is spent conducting these activities. These activities are funded by donations and/or fees at the time of the event. Total expenses of our organization that are allocated for Lodge activities is also about 75 percent.
Our Lodge also organizes community service projects that are conducted by committee members and volunteers, whom are members of the Moose Lodge 606. These community service projects are organized and achieved at the Lodge. Some of the community service projects that we prepare include our annual food drive, annual clothing drive, annual animal shelter drive, and annual school supply drives. We also support local charities such as the boys and girls club, harbor house, and the salvation army. About 10 percent of our organizations time is spent conducting community service projects. These community service projects are funded by both cash and non-cash donations from our members. About 10 percent of our organizations expenses are allocated to community service projects. The community service projects that Moose Lodge 606 organizes helps support members of the local community that need assistance.
Our Lodge also supports Moose international affiliates, such as mooseheart and moosehaven. These activities are organized by committee members and volunteers at both the local and national level. We support these Moose international affiliates at our local Lodge and spend about 15 percent of our time conducting these activities. Our support of Moose international affiliates is funded by donations and about 15 percent of our organizations expenses are allocated to this cause. Our support of mooseheart and moosehaven furthers our exempt purpose, because we are supporting children in need of a safe and stable home and educational environment at mooseheart and our retired members at moosehaven.
