Hiram Award

What is it?

The Hiram Award was designed to be presented to the “unsung hero” of every Lodge such as the volunteer who makes the coffee at each meeting, the one who sets the tables or arranges the furniture and ornaments in the Lodge room, the painter, the gardener, the handyman, the organist, the program chairman, or any number of outstanding brethren who consistently donate their time and talents to our beloved Fraternity, or who have brought credit to the Craft by their community activities. 


The Hiram Award was launched in February of 1977 at Galt Lodge No. 267.  That first year, only one Hiram Award was presented.  However, it quickly caught on, and in 1978, forty were presented.  In the year following, two hundred and fifty were presented.  By 1980, nearly all lodges participated in granting a Hiram Award. 


The brother who has been selected as a Hiram Award recipient has been singled out as the individual lodge’s choice.  This is the highest honor that can be bestowed upon a member who has unselfishly given his time, talents, and energy for the betterment of his lodge and Freemasonry.  The real warmth and pleasure of being chosen for this special honor is most satisfying because it comes directly from the brethren and friends he has accumulated within his community.
