In 1881, a small group of men gathered in a basement in New Haven, CT and began a fraternal society, the Knights of Columbus, now the world's largest Catholic family fraternal service organization.
The Monaghan Council was founded on June 9, 1928. For over 75 years it has successfully contributed to supporting and assisting the community through the many selfless men with the honor of being a Knight. The Monaghan Council is now
one of the largest Knights of Columbus Councils in the Order.
