'the prevention or relief of poverty','the advancement of education','the advancement of religion','the relief of those in need by reason of age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage'

The charity was formed over one hundred years ago, to be a source of benevolent relief for those in financial need, principally but not exclusively from within the membership of the Knights of St. Columba., and their widows and dependents. This relief is by way of non-returnable grants. It also may, at the Trustees discretion, make grants in order to further the Catholic religion and support priests or seminarians in need. Requests for assistance in respect of members of the KSC are usually validated by the Welfare Committee of the Knights of St. Columba, before being forwarded to the Trustees for consideration, under case numbers to protect the identity of the applicant. The Trustees also consider, in the same way, any applications for funds to off-set the membership subscriptions of KSC members who are financially unable to pay..

Objectives: The object of the fund is to enable the Knights of St Columba to provide relief and assaistance in case of need in Great Britian or elsewhere for the purpose of of meting any special emergency or relieveing any special distress or otherwise for the benefit of victims of war or disaster and their dependants irrespective of colour, race or creed.
