Saint Peter Claver Foundation

As the charitable arm of the Knights of Peter Claver and Ladies Auxiliary, the St. Peter Claver Foundation #IGiveCatholic fundraising benefits the St. Peter Claver Mission on San Andres Island Colombia.  The mission serves an impoverished community near the church parish where the residents are so poor that they dont attend mass, so the parish and the KPC unit purchased and cleared land there to say mass and distribute aid. There is currently a concrete slab and a tent, but the plan is to build a permanent structure.
