Overview
Mission
The Knights of Columbus is a Fraternal Benefits Society organization. We support local charitable causes and member activities.
What it reported doing in 2025
Life and Family: Two important areas for men of faith. This year we again provided support for operation of a mobile ultrasound device in our diocese, support for a local shelter, Special Olympics in Connecticut, and a new program to work with men of the Parish in faith formation and strengthening.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.
The verdict
MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
