Cocktail Party


Coastal Laps 4 life

This year’s Cocktail Party to kick off our Coastal Laps 4 Life walk event had a great turn out. Representatives from Mayfair Women’s Clinic, Resources for Women, JMJ, and Grace House Pregnancy Center were in attendance. The Knights of Columbus spoke about the importance of the ASAP programs as well as the Ultrasound Initiatives that are in place to assist those in need.

The ASAP program was able to raise money to assist Client Outreach Centers with much needed supplies, and in this case, diapers.

District Deputy John O’Malley was in attendance and spoke of the support of other local Councils and how they are helping support the ASAP initiative.

Members of the Knights of Columbus and CCW helped cater the event and served food and drink to those in attendance.

We would like to thank Jessica for coming out and speaking at this year’s event. Below is a letter of appreciation of how the ASAP program is helping.

“I wanted to express my appreciation for the Knights event this past Saturday; it was a truly uplifting experience in our shared mission, and we are truly grateful.

Your generosity brought immense joy to our Client Outreach Coordinator. Upon receiving the diapers in our client boutique, she shared that it felt like a prayer answered. We have been facing a shortage of larger-sized diapers, and your contribution made a significant impact in meeting this critical need.

As we update our system, could you please provide your current address and phone number? This information will ensure that we can stay connected.

We are eagerly looking forward to the Coastal Laps for Life Run and would appreciate any specific requests or details you may have in mind. Please feel free to reach out to me or my assistant, Melissa Rodriguez (Melissa@coastalchoices.org), if there’s anything you need or wish to discuss.

Once again, thank you for your support, and we are truly grateful to have you as a valued partner in our ministry.

In His love,”

We would like to thank Jeanette Ghioto from Mayfair for speaking as well.

“Thank you for inviting me. It was a magnificent event. God bless you and all of the Knights for all that you do.”
