Becoming a Knight of Columbus is now more valuable than ever!

As a member of the Knights, you're eligible for a member/spouse accidental death benefit up to $5,000.

If you take advantage of our insurance program, you're also eligible for:

Widows of insured members also have full access to purchase financial products.






Why do we provide all this? Because of our founder, Blessed Michael McGivney

Defender of widows and orphans.

Apostle of Christian family life.

Founder of the Knight of Columbus.

A compassionate priest in a culture strongly prejudiced against Catholics, Father McGivney recognized the spiritual and economic struggles of his parish's families.

In response he founded the Knights of Columbus in 1882, uniting Catholic men and providing mutual financial aid to members.

Today, there are over 2.1 million Knights around the globe. We continue our Founder's mission, by providing Catholic men and their families with opportunities to deepen their faith, enhance fraternal benefits, quality financial products and services, and chances to serve.
