The first principle of the Knights of Columbus is charity and recently the Knights of Mother of Good Hope Council 1957 lived that principle in helping those in the community.

Knights from the council participated in our annual Tootsie Roll drive which helped to raise over $1,800 which will be donated to organizations in the area that benefit those with intellectual disabilities. Past recipients have included Ascend services and the Manitowoc County Special Olympics.

Additionally, the Knights were able to assist a local family in need following an unexpected house fire. The Knights with the assistance of the Wisconsin State Council of the Knights of Columbus were able to donate $600.00 to the local family whose home sustained over $39,000 in damage as a result of the fire.

These small acts represent just a small portion of the good works the members of the Knights of Columbus are doing in our communities
