We are men who lead, serve, protect and defend, whether we are giving out Coats for Kids, donating wheelchairs, lending a helping hand in disaster relief efforts, supporting local pregnancy centers or providing top-quality financial products.
ASAP (Aid and Support After Pregnancy) is a featured program to support pregnant women, mothers, and their children, both born and unborn, by serving pregnancy resource centers and maternity homes.
Thousands of pro-life pregnancy centers operate in jurisdictions throughout the Order. By the very nature of our founding, Knights of Columbus are called to care for the widow and orphan. Vulnerable unborn children and mothers experiencing unexpected pregnancies certainly fall within our mandate. With our aid, pregnancy centers can offer support to help women choose life. Councils can provide material, financial, and other support to pro-life pregnancy centers that help pregnant women during pregnancy and following the birth of their newborn children.
For every $500 a council donates to a qualifying pregnancy resource center or maternity home (up to maximum published separately), the Supreme Council will donate $100 more.
