CRANFORD KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS PRESS RELEASE

On Tuesday November 18th, the Cranford Knights of Columbus Council #6226 made a ceremonial check presentation to the Madd Ox Foundation at the November General Meeting held at the Garwood Columbian Club Hall. The Madd Ox Foundation is a non-profit organization driven by a deep commitment to raising awareness, supporting families and advancing research to prevent stillbirth and ease its impact. The Council donated $5,000 from the proceeds of our Annual Golf held in September at the Galloping Hill Golf Course in Kenilworth, NJ. We would like to thank all of the local businesses and organizations for their help and support that continues to make this worthy event a success each and every year. Since its inception in 2004, the Council’s Annual Golf Outing has raised over $400,000, which has been used to help worthy charities and organizations that the Council supports on an annual basis. Pictured in the check presentation photo from the left are Grand Knight Tom Turner, Brother Knight Rich Leahey, Past Grand Knight John Doolan, Jennifer Gomes-Lemon, Malcolm Lemon, Past Grand Knight Jerry Conheeney, David Lemon, Past Grand Knight John McKeary, Brother Knight Paul Zissler and Worthy Chaplain Monsignor Tim Shugrue.

Since the Council’s founding in 1970, the Cranford Knights of Columbus is a Catholic Men's Fraternal Organization dedicated to our four core principles, Charity, Unity, Fraternity and Patriotism. The Cranford Council supports many worthy charities and civic causes and is committed to being a viable part of our community nationally, statewide and locally.
