Thank you and God bless you to the 40 Dallas Diocese Councils and 3 Assemblies listed below that donated $378,680 to the American Wheelchair Mission to provide 2,524 wheelchairs in fraternal year 2021-2022.
Worthy Grand Knights of the Dallas Diocese,
There are only 13 days left in the fraternal year to participate in the Wheelchair Program by donating at least $150 for one wheelchair.
Worthy Grand Knights of the Dallas Diocese, with only two months left in the fraternal year, the goal is 100% participation of the Dallas Diocese Councils by donating at least $150 for one wheelchair.
Brother Knights, The cutoff date for this report is earlier than usual because of needing to report the numbers at the Texas State Convention. Attached is the report of the Wheelchair Mission Donations by Diocese and Council received as of April 27th.
100 is the number of wheelchairs our council will provide for disabled children at the CRIT Center in La Paz, Mexico as a result of our fundraising drive for the American Wheelchair Mission. The official number was 99, but a few moments ago I received a phone call from brother SK Art Senato, pledging to donate 1 more chair.
St. Michael the Archangel Council #10523 in Grand Prairie and the Dallas Diocese held a very successful first ever Wheelchair Sunday over the weekend. $13,312 was collected at the Masses and $1,450 was received online, for a total of $14,762 for 98 wheelchairs. Since it is estimated that each wheelchair delivered changes and improves an average of 10 lives, they will make an immediate impact in the lives of 980 people.
St. Martin of Tours #13133 in Forney and the Dallas Diocese held a Wheelchair Sunday over the weekend. $1,328 was collected at the Masses and $800 was received online, for a total of $2,128 for 14 wheelchairs.
