Who are the shriners?

Changing the World Through Caring for Children

  • Shriners Hospitals for Children is the only pediatric health care system in The United States that provides care and services regardless of the patients ability to pay.
  • Shriners Hospital for Children is one of the largest pediatric sub-specialty health care systems in the world.
  • The three Shriners Hospitals for Children specializing in burn care are the only hospitals initially established for the exclusive treatment of pediatric burns and related conditions.  A fourth hospital in our health care system offering treatment for burns also provides care of orthopedic conditions, spinal cord injuries and cleft lip and palate.
  • Sine the first Shriners Hospital opened in Shreveport, LA., in 1922, the Shriners health care system has cared for nearly one million children.
  • In 2011, Shriners Hospitals for Children cared for 121,713 children including:
    -285,154 outpatient, outreach and telemedicine clinic visits
    -10,109 prosthetic patient visits (inpatient and outpatient)
    -51,288 orthotics patient visits (inpatient and outpatient)

Supported by a Fraternity

Shriners Hospital for Children was founded by Shriners of North America (now known as Shriners International).  A fraternity that began in 1872, it is based on fun, fellowship, and the Masonic principles of brotherly love, relief, and truth.  There are approximately 310,000 members throughout the world.

The fraternity continues to support the 22 hospital health care system in a variety of ways, including fundraising, volunteering and supporting The All-Star Game.
