Community Service
Jerusalem Temple No. 4, A.E.A.O.N.M.S. is committed to uplifting Baltimore through education, health, and humanitarian service — honoring our fraternal obligation to the communities we serve.
Service Above Self
Since our founding in 1893, Jerusalem Temple No. 4 has been a pillar of service in the Baltimore community. Our Nobles volunteer thousands of hours each year, supporting programs that address education, health, economic empowerment, and youth development.
Our charitable work is guided by the principles of the Ancient Egyptian Arabic Order Nobles Mystic Shrine — Prince Hall Affiliated — and reflects our deep commitment to the Oasis of Baltimore.
Impact figures are estimates based on Temple records and annual reports.
