Support The Masonic Care Community

MCC- Trusted Senior Care for Generations

Formerly known as the "Masonic Home", the Masonic Care Community continues to provide three levels of care on its 400-acre campus, all delivered by highly trained compassionate professionals. Independent Retirement Living is available at Acacia Village’s spacious one- and two-bedroom apartments. At Wiley Hall, residents with moderate health care needs have private rooms as part of a residential adult care concept; a brand-new facility built in 2006 features special accommodations for couples, lounge areas in each residential wing, and a full-time medical staff on call. Full-time skilled nursing is available in the Masonic Care Community's new Health Pavilion. It is one of the most advanced facilities of its kind in the entire country. Here residents receive the highest quality of nursing care around the clock, and a community of residents is looked after by a team of professionals dedicated to caring in a manner consistent with the highest Masonic ideals.

Our History

In 1842 a man by the name of Greenfield Pote, the Grand Tiler of the New York State Masons, laid a silver dollar on the altar of the Grand Lodge Session and asked for the creation of a home for indigent Mason, their wives, and their orphans
The “Masonic Home” as we were originally called was opened in 1893 by the Trustees of the Masonic Hall and Asylum Fund
Nearly 1,000 children were cared for at the Masonic Home between 1893 and 1982
Our 440-acre campus once housed a fully functioning farm with two full cow barns and livestock including horses, pigs, chickens, and crops
Since opening more than 20,000 people have received supportive services and care at the Masonic Care Community
MCC is known as the jewel in the crown of Masonry
