Welcome to the Knights of Columbus

Our Mission
The Knights of Columbus empowers Catholic men to live their faith and serve their family, parish, community and country.

Our Vision
Founded by Blessed Michael McGivney in 1882, the Knights of Columbus is the premier lay Catholic men’s organization. Guided by the principles of charity, unity and fraternity, we build lifelong relationships with our members and families. We are multigenerational and international. We offer formation, mutual aid and financial security to members through our charity, products and outreach. We aspire to invite every Catholic man to join the Knights of Columbus and to extend our charitable reach as widely as possible.

Make a Difference in Someone's Life

In reality, making a difference often happens in quieter, smaller moments. Making a difference can mean showing up for someone who needs support as they navigate losing a loved one. It can mean choosing patience in a tense moment or offering compassion to someone who's struggling.
