Since 1882, membership in the Knights of Columbus has been open to men 18 years of age or older who are "practical" (that is, practicing) Catholics in union with the Holy Spirit.

The Knights of Columbus is a fraternal benefit society, which means we can provide financial security to members and their families, while also doing good for the world at large.


Charity is at the heart of our work and our faith — and it always has been. For the Knights of Columbus, charity means supporting a virtually boundless variety of projects.
