Warmth and Witness: Sacred Heart Knights Deliver Over 300 Coats to Local Kids!

As the Seattle chill begins to set in, the Sacred Heart Knights of Columbus are thrilled to share an incredible success story that truly warms the heart. Thanks to the overwhelming generosity of our parish and community, our annual "Coats for Kids" drive was a monumental success, delivering essential warmth to hundreds of children in need this winter!

A Mountain of Warmth: The Impact

We are ecstatic to announce that the Sacred Heart Knights were able to collect and donate well over 300 coats! This remarkable number represents hundreds of local children who will now face the colder months protected and prepared.

The coats were distributed to two vital local organizations:

• Jubilee Reach: Dedicated to serving children and families in the Bellevue School District.

• St. James Cathedral: Supporting those facing homelessness and poverty in the Seattle area.

This drive directly translates our faith into action, providing comfort and dignity to those who need it most in our local neighborhoods.

The Knightly Mission in Action

The "Coats for Kids" program perfectly exemplifies the core mission of the Knights of Columbus. Our commitment to Charity means we stand ready to serve our community, especially those who are vulnerable.

This initiative is a powerful reminder that we are called to be Christ’s hands and feet on the ground. By pooling our resources and working together, we can address real, immediate needs and ensure that no child in our community is left out in the cold. Thank you for demonstrating such profound compassion and community solidarity!

A Shout-Out to Leadership and Generosity

This kind of success doesn't happen by accident. A massive shout-out goes to Bill Michael, who led the charge and tirelessly coordinated the logistics of the drive. Bill’s dedication was instrumental in achieving this outstanding result.

To every parishioner, donor, and volunteer who sorted, packed, and delivered—thank you. Your generosity and hard work are what make the Sacred Heart Knights such a positive force in our community.

Vivat Jesus! We are already looking forward to making an even bigger impact next year!
