The King Edward Masonic Lodge offers the MasoniCh.I.P. Program

Sun, 29 Mar 2009 01:19:08 +0000

From 8:30 to 3:00 ustairs at the Sunderland Legion the King Edward Masonic Lodge offers the MasoniCh.I.P. Program The MasoniCh.I.P. program uses modern, police-approved techniques to create a child identification kit for the ones you love. The kit collects photos, video, voice recordings, digital fingerprints, dental impressions, saliva swabs as well as traditional statistical information (height, weight, hair and eye colour, etc.). This information is matched to work seamlessly with Ontario's law enforcement providers. By being so compatible, the critical indentifying information can be broadcast and shared more quickly than ever before to assist with the safe recovery of missing children. The MasoniCh.I.P. program is brought exclusively to families by dedicated Masons and their volunteers, free of charge along with our sentiment that "We hope you never need to use it."

What's in a MasoniCh.I.P. Kit? When a child has a kit prepared, their parent or guardian will receive a printed colour data sheet with several ID card inserts, a CD-ROM storing all the digital information, and a sealed bag with the dental plate and cheek swab. All this material and information is given to the parent or guardian. No information is ever stored by the MasoniChIP program.
