Worthy Brother Knights,
I would like to introduce myself, Vito A. Pulito, as the New Jersey Director of FAMILY PROGRAMS. I am truly honored and humbled to chair this role.
I see Family Programs as a core nucleus at driving our Knights mission of Charity, Unity and Fraternity. Family programs are key to driving our values, where else but to start with families. Building on family programs will foster stronger Councils adding many opportunities to membership and programs.
Now is the time to engage the families.
I encourage all to review your past involvement with these programs and try to start and/or build on what has been accomplished. I believe in all to make it happen.
