  • Why Join Knights?

    • "The Knights of Columbus help college men grow in faith, virtue, and fraternity by rooting them in prayer, the sacraments, and intentional brotherhood while giving them real opportunities to lead and serve. Through charitable works, campus initiatives, national events, and a strong network of peers, young men form lasting friendships grounded in their Catholic identity. They also gain professional development, mentorship, and access to financial tools designed specifically for their future, helping them build a life of integrity and service."​
