A Legacy of Community Service

Established in August 1974, the Public Service Lodge boasts a storied legacy of serving the Ghanaian populace. Founded by twelve esteemed Masons under the leadership of W. Bro. Philip Carlis Paittoo, the Lodge aimed to foster camaraderie among distinguished individuals within the public service sector.

In addition to its internal initiatives, the Public Service Lodge has consistently demonstrated a steadfast commitment to societal welfare. Through its enduring tradition of supporting charitable causes, both autonomously and in collaboration with the District Grand Lodge of Ghana, the Lodge has endeavored to alleviate the suffering of those in need, in accordance with the principles of Freemasonry.

The donation to the Adabraka Polyclinic exemplifies the Public Service Lodge's ongoing dedication to effecting positive change within society, serving as a testament to its enduring values of service, fellowship, and philanthropy.
