About our council
Our Parish Knights of Columbus Council 10575 was formed by men of St. Daniel the Prophet Parish. Our Council’s members are your friends and neighbors, and participate in many different ministries and aspects of parish life. The St. Daniel’s Council currently has 130 members, and has grown steadily for many years.

The council has been active in sponsoring many parish social events for the family and adults, including  Pancake/French Toast Breakfasts, Annual Pasta Dinner and Auction, Free Throw Contest, Easter Egg Hunt, Taste of Wheaton Pizza Night, Annual Golf Outing and Dinner, Blood Drives, and Annual Tootsie Roll Drive.

In 2010, the council raised over $5,000 for people in our local community with mental and developmental disabilities.

The Council has raised over $400,000 for charitable causes since its formation in 1991!!!

The majority of this amount has been used for support in our local community.  Our council has helped those with major medical problems, helping with bills to insure a family was able to keep their home (for 7 years).  The Council presently supports four families with major medical expenses. It is through the support of our community that we have been able to make this happen. If you would like to help out by donating to our cause please click here. We now accept credit and debit cards via a secure server on Pay Pal and you do not need to have a Pay Pal account.
