Community
Make a powerful difference in your community. Our community programs help neighbors with the basic human needs of food, shelter, mobility, and compassion — fighting poverty and lifting up individuals across New Tampa and beyond.
Hands-On Service

Through Keep America Beautiful, Knights adopt Cross Creek Boulevard and keep our neighborhood's gateway clean, season after season.

“How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity!”
— Psalm 133:1. Community service is where our council's volunteer hours add up fastest: seventeen supported charities, thousands of hours, and a visible Catholic presence across Hillsborough County. Every project has room for one more pair of hands — including yours.
