Overview
Mission
The friendly sons of saint patrick of westchester county is inspired by the life of our patron saint, saint patrick. Members share and celebrate their brotherly heritage of ireland and are committed to providing charitable assistance to the needy and less fortunate. The members meet annually in the fall, on the monday before thanksgiving and hosts a black-tie fundraiser dinner in march, before st. Patrick's day (march 17). The main purpose of our annual dinner is to raise money and donate it to worthy causes.
What it reported doing in 2024
The membership of all committees are appointed annually by the chairman and ratified by the board of stewards. Annually, the committee on charities allocates a certain dollar amount to the almoner, who is elected by the general membership annually, to distribute to individuals in an emergent need situation in his sole discretion. Examples include, victims of fire, flooding, domestic violence, food or housing insecurity and alike. A recap report of the funds expended is presented to the board of stewards. An almoner's committee is an advisory group, comprised of members, who are well connected in the community and bring individual situational needs to the attention of the almoner. In the 2025 fiscal year, 1,500 was provided to the almoner who in turn provided relief in grants to 2 individuals that had extraordinary needs.
