Toronto Don Valley District Freemasons launch new logo and other initiatives for 2024-2025
Embracing Unity and Strength with a Fresh Look
Toronto, ON – September 1, 2024 – The Toronto Don Valley District Freemasons (TDV District) is pleased to announce the launch of a new logo for the 2024-2025 Masonic year. The redesigned logo proudly features this year’s slogan, “Forward Together. Stronger as One.” This emblem represents the commitment to unity and strength within our community.
The new logo will be prominently displayed across the District’s official website, social media platforms, and all communication materials. “We encourage Brethren to include this logo in their email signatures and other communications to help strengthen and reinforce our collective identity,” says DDGM, R.W. Bro. Reddy Sampath.
Showcasing pride through branded merchandise
A variety of merchandise featuring the new District logo is now available for purchase. These items help to highlight our pride and support the District’s branding efforts. Available for purchase or pick-up during Installations and Oicial Visits, our cap, t-shirt, distinguished tie pin, and insightful Masonic books are perfect for everyone. Please refer to the attached TDV District Merchandise flyer for a preview of our products and ordering instructions.
Support for Charities
We are also pleased to highlight our support for two important charities during the 2024-2025 Masonic year: the Caritas School of Life supporting addictions and mental health helping men and women aged 16 and older, as well as their families; and the Last Post Fund ensuring no Veteran is denied a dignified funeral and burial, as well as a military gravestone, due to insufficient funds at the time of death. We invite everyone to contribute to these worthy causes through donations and participation in our District and Signature events. All events are open to family and friends, inviting everyone to join in the celebrations. It is also an excellent opportunity to introduce potential candidates and their spouses to the District’s events and experience our warm hospitality.
