KC Council 1653 supports life with Koins for Kids

Knights of Columbus Council 1653 of St. Joseph’s Catholic Church in Beeville  started a new program called Koins for Kids. The Knights took baby bottles and asked the parish community to take change they find around the house, in the car, in the couch and put it in the bottle and bring it back to church.

The contributed change was given to Corpus Christi Pregnancy Center in Portland to assist them in obtaining a mobile Sonogram unit. Knights presented a check for $2,500 to Jana Pinson, director of the center.
