WOW!, what an event and what a success our 2022 Breakfast for Babies was!
We raised over $8,100.00 in cash and merchandise! The proceeds bounty will be donated to worthy and wonderful Organizations such as the St. Francis Cabrini Clinic of Most Holy Trinity Parish, the oldest free clinic in the United States, serving the most encumbered and disadvantaged in South west Detroit, specifically moms and children.  

Our mission matters Gentleman, now more than ever.  Thank you to all the Knights that put this together and turned out today to support this extraordinary gift that the Knights can give to our community.

To those that couldn’t attend, please plan on being at our Outdoor Knights event on Saturday March 19th. Come one, come all for a great date night or stag night with your buddies. Please contact myself, Brian Lents or Joe Whitenight to get your table of tickets to sell.  With all of your support this will also be a fantastic success!


Vivat Jesus!

With that in mind St. Isidore Council #12258 hosted a parish breakfast at their parish with the proceeds to be donated to HELP.

Grand Knight Mike Bertram and his wife Fran presented a check of $1,000.00 to the effort.

Amy Oatley, Social Media Assoc./Volunteer Liaison for the center accepted the check and Director Paula Veneklase thanked them for the council's support.
