Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Zionist Men's Association of Canada. Geulah-Menorah Lodge : The Geulah Lodge was established by a group of volunteers to serve in the Palestine Appeal campaigns in 1923. The first lodge called the Grand Lodge, changed its name to Geulah Lodge in 1927. The Lodge came into existence as the result of a decision adopted at the eighteenth Convention of the Zionist Organization held in Ottawa in 1922, to organize the Zionist Order Habonim. The Geulah Lodge merged with the Menorah Lodge in 1968 to form the Geulah-Menorah Lodge. The Menorah Lodge was first organized as a Judean club in 1918, becoming the Knights of Judea Lodge in 1926.

Several members of the Geulah Lodge achieved prominence in the Canadian Zionist movement, including Michael Garber, Q.C. and Joseph M. Frank, who became president of the Zionist Organization of Canada, and Hyman Grover who served as its treasurer. The Geulah-Menorah Lodge carried on a scholarship fund from 1970 to 1980, which encourages many young Judeans to spend a year in Israel.
