Brother Knights,
Attached is the Wheelchair Mission Donations by Diocese and Council received as of August 31, 2025. Thank you and God bless you to the 53 Councils and 3 Assemblies that donated a total of $57,224 for 381 wheelchairs this fraternal year. At this time last fraternal year, 43 Councils had donated $40,497 for 270 wheelchairs.
Since it is estimated that each wheelchair delivered changes and improves an average of 10 lives, you have impacted the lives of 3,810 people!
The goal for District Deputies is to have all their Councils participate in the Wheelchair Program by donating at least $150 for one wheelchair and have at least one of their Councils hold a Wheelchair Sunday.
The State goal is to set a new jurisdiction record by exceeding the $1,561,788 for 10,412 wheelchairs raised last fraternal year.
Please make checks payable to American Wheelchair Mission and include the attached donation form in your mailing. To donate online, please visit amwheelchair.org/donate and select “Knights of Columbus” in the Campaign field and enter your Council Number in the Organization/Council field.
If you have any questions about the Wheelchair Program, need help with a Wheelchair Sunday, or need wheelchairs, please contact me in Plano at yankeesweb@tx.rr.com or 214-405-8023 or Assistant Wheelchair Chairman Brian Nelson in San Antonio at abn091951@gmail.com or 210-275-7921.
