Article 4 — Public Witness: Building a Culture of Life Across Saskatchewan
Featuring: Saskatchewan Pro‑Life, Estevan Pro‑Life, Shellbrook Billboard
A culture of life is built not only through care and accompaniment, but also through public witness. This year, the Sask K of C Charitable Foundation supported several organizations dedicated to ensuring that messages of hope, dignity, and life remain visible across our province.
The Saskatchewan Pro‑Life Association continues its work through educational outreach, the March for Life, and a network of six pro‑life billboards across the province. These signs reach thousands of people daily with messages that affirm the value of every human life.
The Estevan Pro‑Life Association maintains ten billboards, offering a consistent and compassionate reminder of the gift of life to travellers and community members.
Closer to home, Shellbrook Council 9760 replaced its long‑standing pro‑life billboard — a project supported through this year’s grants. This sign has been a fixture in the community for decades, and its renewal ensures that the message continues for years to come.
These public witnesses matter. They spark reflection, offer encouragement, and remind our communities that life is precious.
Providing Help, Creating Hope
Since 1969, the Sask K of C Charitable Foundation has dedicated itself to creating, administering and advocating for programs and services that help families in need. Through our various programs, we have focused on assisting families to overcome life’s obstacles that threaten their self-sufficiency. Last year, we provided services to many families in Saskatchewan and touched the lives of countless others through our advocacy and convening efforts.
Cash Calendars
The Sask K of C Charitable Foundation has developed a Cash Calendar Fundraiser, with only 5000 calendars being printed. The 2027 Calendar features photos with text from 12 recipients of donations from the Foundation.
The cash calendar will have 64 draws throughout the year with a total payout of $25,000.00 in cash prizes. All Saskatchewan Knight of Columbus Councils will sell these calendars in the province for $40.00 per calendar.
Please contact the Knights of Columbus Council in your community to purchase your calendar and participate in this exciting project.

“In Memoriam” Program
Honour someone you love, remember someone you miss…
The In Memoriam program is an excellent method to commemorate deceased loved ones.
- It is a very effective expression of sympathy to families grieving the recent loss of a loved one.
- It is also an opportunity to honour the memory of a loved one’s special day or memory, such as a birthday, a couple’s wedding anniversary, an anniversary of a loved one’s death, or any other special event.
The “In Memoriam” program also encourages Councils, Brother Knights, and their families to include the Sask K of C Charitable Foundation as a preferred charity in their end-of-life planning and discussions with funeral chapel directors.
