The Masonic Home of Florida Wish List for
Corky's and Activities

"The History of Corky's Cupboard"

Coreen Brownell, “Corky”, came up with the idea in 1990, to hand out sundry items and health & beauty aids to residents, received from donations. She was a Member of the Masonic Home Service Guild whose members volunteer here and who are also Eastern Star Members. She initiated a state-wide plea for donations and they started coming in from Lodges and Chapters, and since then, twice a week, “Corky’s Cupboard”, named in her honor, opens for the purpose of supplying the residents with their toiletry needs. These needed items are listed below. Corky ran the Cupboard for many years until her passing. It continues to be run by the Service Guild, and is located inside the “Now & Then” Gift Shop. It is entirely sustained through kind donations of items, and cash to buy the items the residents need the most! Sincere “thanks” from all the residents to those who have donated!
The Masonic Home of Florida would like to thank all of you who have made contributions to this wish list in the past. Through your generosity we have received many items. Send donations to:
