About

The Association of Filipino-American Freemasons in Illinois or AFFI is an association primarily made up of, but not limited to, Freemasons of Filipino decent who live in the greater Chicago area. We were founded in 1974 and operate as a chapter of PMAAI or the Philippine Masonic Association of America, Inc. pmaai.org 

AFFI is an United States of America 501(c)(3) charity. Any donations made to AFFI will be tax deductible on your United States of America federal taxes.

Our primary goal is to provide aid to distressed or poverty stricken children and their families in the Philippines. We also support domestic children charities in the State of Illinois, with the future goal of supporting the Filipino community in the greater Chicago area.
