In late June, our council hosted a car show at Saint Charles. The proceeds from this event were donated to a pair of organizations. The first is Edna’ house, which is a shelter for women struggling with substance abuse. The second is the Cyrenians, which is a group at Saint Charles that makes peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the homeless. The photos below show our trustee Robert handing out checks to these groups.
The Knights of Columbus Council 16137 are selling tickets for a monthly 50/50 raffle
to cover the month to month maintenance expenses associated with the Parma Safe Haven
Baby Box. Only 200 tickets are being sold every month and 100% of the proceeds go towards
maintenance costs. For more information go to www.shbb.org
One of our summer activities is to host a car show at Saint Charles in the church Parking lot. The proceeds from this event go to helping two different organizations. One is the Cyrenian group at Saint Charles, which makes peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the homeless. The second group is Edna’s house, which provides shelter for women recovering from substance abuse. Each group got a check of over $500, which was distributed by our worthy Trustee Robert.
I want to thank, on behalf of the Knights of Columbus Car Show Staff, everyone who Helped, Donated, Brought their Vehicles out, and just showed up to Support a worthwhile cause. The Proceeds, once Calculated will be Donated to the Cyrenians who make the Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches for the Homeless, and to Edna House that help Women with Alcohol and Drug Addiction...
The Food Trucks that came out were Love Coffee, Brayson's Ice Cream, and Babcia's Kitchen...
