HOPE VALLEY — On Saturday, August 10, the local Narragansett, RI, community and the Knights of Columbus Pope Pius XII Council came together for a sold-out golf event that brought 144 enthusiastic golfers to Richmond Country Club in Hope Valley, RI. The day was filled with excitement, camaraderie, and a shared commitment to supporting the Knights of Columbus and their lasting impact. The Catholic Foundation of Rhode Island was thrilled to be the lead lunch sponsor and is grateful to the Knights for allowing us to play such a role in the success of this event.
Sponsorship From the Foundation:
The Catholic Foundation’s support for the event was not just a sponsorship. It was a commitment, as shown by the collateral in each golfer’s bag and the prominent placement of the Foundation’s name on golf cart signage and the event’s website.
During lunch, the Foundation was graciously granted the opportunity to speak and present, allowing Rich Popovic, Executive Director, to share its mission and the profound impact of its work on the Catholic community of Rhode Island.
A significant connection was made as Rich highlighted the endowment funds tied to the Faith, which perpetually benefits the organization. Hopefully, this connection resonated deeply with many participants, reinforcing the enduring nature of the contributions and the shared values between the Foundation and the Knights of Columbus, ultimately inspiring hope for the future.
The event was a day of fun and sport, a reminder of the power of community and the importance of supporting organizations like the Catholic Foundation and the Knights of Columbus, which work tirelessly to create lasting, positive change.
Thank you to everyone who participated in the event, and most of all, a heartfelt thank you to the Knights for their invaluable partnership and for allowing the Catholic Foundation to be a part of this memorable day! We are grateful for the partnership and look forward to meaningful future collaborations that benefit our shared community.
