The Knights of Columbus are gearing up for their annual Campaign for Persons with Intellectual Disabilities.

Joe Lickteig with the Knights of Columbus tells KNIA/KRLS News they’ll be raising funds outside of the Pella Hy-Vee, Fareway, and Walmart from Saturday, August 19th through Saturday, August 26th. Lickteig says they are among the highest fundraising groups in the Knights of Columbus, and they aim to grow even more this fall.

Additionally, athletes from Pella and Pella Christian schools will be collecting donations throughout the drive.

Proceeds benefit Christian Opportunity Center, Pella and Pella Christian’s Special Education Departments, and the Iowa Special Olympics.
