5. Newblog2011: 07/20/11 Masonichip International/The Center for Missing and Exploited Children
I've added some of the bold print.
Also on July 17, 2011, on my WordPress blog entitled “ireallyprotest,” I questioned something that the Vermont Masons are advertising called the “CHILD ID PROGRAM.”
As I thought, the Masonic Child ID Program involves keeping a database of pictures and other identifying information of children. It’s supposed to be used to help with child safety.
It is actually called “Masonichip International.” It’s all around the world.
I looked at the website for Masonichip International; in addition to other things, it has the logo for the “National Center for Missing and Exploited Children” on it.
I just looked up the website for the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
The website now has a section at the bottom that shows a series of ads. The section says “Featured Partner.” Some of the ads featured today are:
--Disney Club Penguin
--Honeywell
--Old Navy
At the bottom of the page, it says:

The Masonichip program is extensive.
Here’s what some of the first page of its website looks like:

"Masonichip Stats Did you know?
That there are more than 113,400 missing children in the United States between the ages of 6 and 11.
We are pleased to report that since 1990 our member Grand Lodges and their constituent Local Masonic Lodges have:

Welcome to Masonichip International
Making a difference through technology!
Welcome to the new “cloud computing” informational portal supporting Masonic Safety Identification Programs conducted independently at differing levels of activity by over (35) Grand Lodges of Masons in North America. It is managed by the Directors of MasoniCHIP International a 501 (c)(3) non-profit public foundation of the Conference of Grand Master of Masons in North America.
Our goal is to put the tools and information in the hands of our volunteers to cost effectively manage our public service initiatives 24/7. What you see on this public website is but the tip of the iceberg, the hub and instructional tool to expose all to the benefits of employing a totally "on-line" web server system to manage a MasoniCHIP initiative. Currently (9) Grand Lodges are collaborating to share technology and development costs of operation on a common server platform with "open source" server-based products from around the globe... yet each individually customizes and is in control of their own database driven communication tool to make of what they will. Collaboration allows us to continually upgrade our technology to benefit all in this ever expanding information age.
Here we will be providing links to all our collaborating programs, sharing new information, posting notices of upcoming MasoniCHIP Learning Academies and other news of interest. Collaboration allows us to continually upgrade our technology to benefit all in this ever expanding information age. In the coming weeks we will setting up sections for each Grand Lodge jurisdiction to post articles that we receive from across the continent. We encourage all our member jurisdictions to send us articles and stories of their accomplishments for inclusion on these web pages.
Visit here often…we will be adding new features and aspects each month…our FACEBOOK PAGE is also just in its infancy…that too will soon begin to bloom with the approach of Spring."
