Shriners History:
 The Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine
(A.A.O.N.M.S.)
was founded in New York in 1872.
Established as a fraternal organization, in its early years,
the group supported a variety of worthy causes devoted to the health and well
being of children. In 1920, the Shrine formally established the Shriners
Hospital for Crippled Children as the group's official charity and the first
Shriners Hospital opened in 1922 in Shreveport, LA. Now, 80 years later, 22 Shriners Hospitals in the U.S.,
Canada and Mexico provide the finest orthopedic and burn treatment available for
children at absolutely no cost.
