On 27 February, 2008, Council #7914 presented the Board of Directors of the Center for Life Enrichment with a contribution of $4,800 - the proceeds of our 2007 Tootsie Roll drive! The Knights covered the cost of the Tootsie Rolls out of council funds, so that every penny collected could help the intellectually disadvantaged.

The board members hosted the Knights for lunch, and TCLE Director Jack Hormell thanked the Knights for their continued monetary help and for the recent donations of a pool table and aquarium. Council #7914 supports St. John Francis Regis Church and the surrounding community in a number of ways.

This fundraiser is held every year to support local organizations such as the Center for Life Enrichment. Each Knights of Columbus council chooses the organization(s) that their efforts will benefit. The Center for Life Enrichment will use the funds to support adult individuals with developmental disabilities in pursuit of their vocational interests.
