Our Purpose

The Knights of Columbus Council 10517 and our community partners are working together to honor those veterans from Santa Fe and the surrounding areas who were willing to put their lives on the line so their fellow Americans could live in peace and focus on a better life. Our Santa Fe community honors and cherishes the memory of those veterans who stood for freedom and in many instances, gave their all. We believe the Santa Fe Heroes program is a great way of showing our appreciation and we felt the original program needed to be revitalized and updated. We are proud to work with our partners to demonstrate how the Santa Fe community comes together to honor our veterans.
