How we Serve LIFE

Pro-life

Support for the protection and dignity of human life is a high priority of the State College Knights of Columbus. Our Council donates to State and Supreme Council initiatives for Life and the sanctity of marriage. Locally, we run a yearly Baby Bottle campaign to benefit the Gabriel Project, a parish-based program that provides financial, medical and spiritual support to women with difficult pregnancies. The campaign has raised over $41,000 over the last four years. Our council has also been a home to the pilgrimage of the Silver Rose.  Our Council also contributes to the OLV Parish attending the March For Life in Washington, DC.
Currently working on providing an ultra-sound machine for Pregnancy Resource Center (PRC) State College satellite location at Lock Haven.


Special Olympics

For over 25 years, our State College Knights of Columbus Council has provided a large number of the volunteers for the Aquatics competition of the Pennsylvania Special Olympics event held on Penn State’s campus each June.
