All Department of Education Members which includes Officers and members of the Lodge
Department of Education encompasses members from Iroquois Lodge #92 and members of the womens' auxiliaries (South Terrace Temple #1353 and Cherokee Temple #223). Officers include a Chairperson, Co-Chair, Secretary, Treasurer, and Chaplain.
We provide two annual local scholarships and those local winners then go on to compete regionally, and possibly nationally for additional monies. We also have provided mentoring, yearly Halloween, Easter and Christmas activities and dinners. We have provided Thanksgiving baskets, as well, all free of charge. We currently participate in all of the 24th and Lake Street activities.

Service/program
We want to repair and upgrade the upstairs in our current building to provide tutoring, mentoring, and other activities for students who need assistance post-pandemic.
Our timeline would be by the first quarter of 2023, if possible. That would still allow assistance for this current school year.

It will provide a safe place for young people to get educational and mentoring, which would include learning activities. We currently have the largest rental hall in North Omaha, which can also provide adult workshops and activities.
It will provide a space for community workshops, meetings and other activities on a small or large scale.
This facility has been in the community for over 100 years and the only reason it was rejected as a historical site was there were modifications to the entrance many years ago.
