Developmentally Disabled Drive

  • Sign up at the Churches

    We need friendly volunteers to greet parishioners and collect donations.

    St. Philomena: 3 volunteers per Mass

    St. Raphael & Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament (OLBS): 2 volunteers per Mass

    Even an hour of your time makes a difference!

  • What we do

    Each year our Council raises funds at local parishes and businesses to support children and adults with developmental disabilities.

    Local Impact: Donations directly assist three community organizations serving families in need.

    Statewide Goal: 10% of all funds help meet the Knights of Columbus’ national pledge to the Special Olympics.

    Proven Results: Together, Knights across New Jersey raise millions of dollars annually, and 100% of every penny goes directly to these programs.

    Our Council’s annual target is $5,000—and with everyone’s help we’ve met it every year. Help us keep the tradition alive!

  • Sign up at the local businesses

    This is where we need the most help. Local merchants generously allow us to collect donations outside their stores—but it only works if every time slot is covered.

    Your presence matters: every penny counts and every hour you volunteer helps us reach families who need it most.
