Knights of Columbus holding sock & t-shirt drive; hosting breakfast
The local Knights of Columbus Council from St. Agnes Parish in Fowlerville, Michigan are once again sponsoring a sock and t-shirt drive for the Veterans at the VA Hospital in Ann Arbor. Through the generous donations of the Fowlerville Community, the 2025 event brought in over 1100 articles of clothing to help meet our Veteran’s needs.
This year’s event will run from October 24th through November 15th. The Knights will be accepting donations of new white socks and white t-shirts (unused with store tags attached). The Knights will collect all clothing donations after each weekend. Donations can also be dropped off at the parish offices during the weeks in between.
On Sunday, November 8th, The Knights will be hosting a Sunday breakfast from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM to aid in this clothing drive. A free will donation is asked of all who join us for breakfast. All net proceeds from the breakfast will go towards the purchase of additional socks and t-shirts.
The VA is currently seeing their patient load as 90% male and 10% female. Men’s sizes should be between medium and extra-large. Women’s sizes should be between small and large. The Collected white socks and white t-shirts will be donated to the Ann Arbor VA between Veteran’s Day and the Thanksgiving Holiday.
So please join us in our goal of helping our Veterans. Donate white socks or white t-shirts at St. Agnes Parish offices between October 24th and November 15th or after each weekend mass. Then plan on joining us for a wonderful breakfast on November 8th.
