The Shrine fez bearing the name Khartum, so familiar to many people in Manitoba and Northwestern Ontario today, was relatively unknown until 1905 when Khartum Temple was introduced, established and chartered in Winnipeg, Manitoba, through the efforts of members of the Masonic Order, Scottish and York Rites and the Shrine of North America. Thus, the name 'Khartum', taken from the chief city in Sudan, became Temple No. 95 in the Shrine of North America and the fifth temple to be chartered in Canada.As membership rapidly grew throughout the Shrine of North America, the Imperial Shrine officers recognized that Shriners had to have a mandate that would keep their membership united in a common purpose. Thus, in 1922, was established the Shriners Hospitals for Children, which to this date is known as the 'World's Greatest Philanthropy'. Its mandate was to set up and maintain a network of hospitals for treating children with orthopaedic or burns injuries. In 1923, Khartum Shriners proudly sent their first three patients to the Twin Cities Shrine Hospital for Children for treatment at no cost to the children or their families
