It is so much more than a tootsie-roll
Thanks for making the Coats for Kids a huge success
In late October, a special need came to our Grand Knight's Gerry Kneeshaw attention. There was an immediate need for jackets for migrant farm workers in the Hart/Shelby area.
The Knights of Columbus Council 7115 sprang into action. Led by Coats for Kids Committee Chairman John Dacloush, the combined parishes of St. Francis DeSales and Our Lady of the Lake and Council 7115 responded in true Christ like fashion.
By the Numbers the Coats for Kids program:
- Donated Cash: $2,100
- Donated Jackets: 75
- Purchased Jackets for St. Gregory Catholic Church: Hart, MI: 24
Marge Bermann was so thankful and overwhelmed by the generosity and praised God for the support.
Alyssa Gaerte Mission Coordinator for Our Lady of the lake commented how awesome the Knights are and how active we are. Great job to everyone.
Please watch this space for additional updates as we donate to St. Francis and Holland's Rescue Mission.
