Welcome to our Oregon State KofC Charities Website
Oregon State KofC Charities was established in 1980 so that members could individually donate to a non-profit group. Oregon State KofC Charities is totally dependent on contributions from council members, family members and friends of Knights of Columbus in the Pacific Northwest to support our many recipients.
We have answered the call to countless people in need within our State and outside our State. We have assisted with natural disasters, pregnancy resources, and so many others. The list below highlights some, but not all of the programs that we have sponsored.
● Men in Seminary for the Priesthood
● Natural Disasters
● Culture of Life Programs
● Ultrasound Initiatives
● Homes for Unwed Mothers
● Those with Disabilities
● Global Wheelchairs
● Food Basket Programs
● Catholic Youth & Scholarships
● Military Chaplains
Through our service to others, we offer time, talent, and treasure to assist and honor the dignity and potential of each individual person. We work hard to save lives and change lives every day in Oregon and beyond.
As Knights, we are united in our Faith and pursuit of growth in virtue. Through our Charity, we demonstrate that we have the Heart of a Knight. Please tour our website. Perhaps you will find a program that speaks to you and calls for your involvement.
Thank you for your interest and support.
Vivat Jesus!
