What We Do
Charity is been the first principle of the Knights of Columbus. We are men of faith and men of action.
Knights volunteer countless hours of their time to charitable causes. We undertake these acts of charity because we see those in need through the eyes of faith. Moreover, in the Knights of Columbus, we approach these acts of charity together. Pope Benedict XVI calls this the “practice of love…as a community.”
