Why Join the Knights?

The world needs Catholic men to step up and live out their faith. You're ready to make a difference. The Knights of Columbus helps men put their faith into action and give back -- in their communities, parishes, and around the world.

Knights are Catholic men, 18 years of age and older, who are committed to making their community a better place, while supporting their Church. Being a Knight is more than camaraderie; it is being involved with your community; it is supporting your local Catholic Church, while enhancing your own faith; it is about protecting and enhancing your family life. 

Our four-page overview brochure (pdf) provides additional information about what it means to be a member of the Knights of Columbus. Learn more about our rich history and charitable outreach with this useful fact sheet.
