Donation to Ukraine Relief Fund
Submitted by J. M. Jones
Officers of the Knights of Columbus Msgr. Henry J. Watterson Council #1711 of Westfield recently presented James Vari, District Deputy of the New Jersey Knights of Columbus, with a donation check of $2,000 to the Knights of Columbus Ukraine Solidarity Relief Fund. Also present was Rev. Fr. William Benedetto, of Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church in Mountainside, who serves as the Council’s Chaplain.
This fund supports the Knights’ Mercy Centers constructed throughout Ukraine, providing food and shelter to those ravaged by war. The Westfield Council wishes to thank all those who participated in their recent Lenten Drive-Thru Fish Fry, which supported this donation.
The Knights of Columbus is a fraternal organization of Catholic men who wish to join together to serve the Church and our community. To learn more, contact J.M. Jones, Grand Knight, at grayfdir@gmail.com.
