Scholarships to the Needy Children in India

With the help of brother knights we were able to provide scholarships to 10 needy children in India. This will help them go to school, help support their families and hopefully they will be able to give back to their community in the future. Some of these children have lost their mother or father or could not afford to go to school.

Please help to support this program. If you are interested in donating, please write a check to the "Knights of Columbus" and write in the memo "St Thomas Food For The Poor". Then deposit it in the Knights mailbox at church. Thanks.

The goal is after 3 months training, they can take this life long skill, find employment and feed their families. Here is a video of sewing machines training that is under progress. Please take a look.
