Giving back, one step at a time
The following is a record of the contributions made by the Lodge over time from small community efforts to larger moments of support.
Supporting local youth through rugby
At our October 6th, 2025 Chicken Barbecue event, we were proud to present a donation of $3,031 to the San Luis Obispo Rugby Club. The check was presented by Bob Simoni, Lodge Treasurer, on behalf of the Odd Fellows Lodge.
This contribution was raised by our members in memory of Steve Macie, a long-standing lodge member whose legacy continues to inspire acts of service. The donation supports the growth and development of local youth athletics, something we believe helps strengthen the fabric of our community.
Making space for skill-building
We were pleased to donate the use of our lodge to the Sierra Club for their CPR Training event.
Providing space for programs that promote safety and preparedness reflects our ongoing commitment to supporting meaningful initiatives in San Luis Obispo.
