KC info
The Msgr. Walter Kalandyk Council #6587 at St Joseph Parish in Hayward is one of over 15,000 councils of the Knights of Columbus, established in 1882 by Fr Michael McGivney. Dedicated primarily to charitable work and the sanctity of life, the Knights’ involvement includes fundraising for the mentally handicapped, assisting with college expenses, donating to the local food shelves, offering financial assistance for ultrasound placement in pregnancy resource centers at the local and national level, and more! We help support our parish activities and consider our council as part of the parish family.
High quality insurance plans available only to members and families are optional, but the strength of the members-only insurance products provides financial strength and sustainability for the Knights of Columbus.

Casimir Tyminski College Scholarship
-
Casimir Tyminski was a member of St Joseph Parish, and upon passing away, left the relatively new Hayward Knights of Columbus, Monsignor Kalandyke Council 6587, a sizable fund for charitable works. His commitment to this community was commendable and we are honored to administer the gift.
With Tyminski's gift, the council committed to build and fund Scholarships for higher education for members from our parishes.The Casimir Tyminski Scholarships are being offered by the Knights of Columbus for students from each of the Hayward Area Catholic Churches including St. Josephs, St. Ann’s, St. Francis Solanus, St. Ignatius, and St. Phillips parishes. All students who have successfully completed high school, have earned a diploma, and have been accepted at a post-secondary education trade school, community college or four-year university are eligible to apply for the scholarship.
There are additional KC Scholarships funded by the Supreme Council that students may want to check out too!
More info is coming soon!!
