Our Mission

KIND Charities of Tennessee is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the lives of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities throughout Tennessee.

Through the generosity and dedication of volunteers from Knights of Columbus councils across the state, we raise funds that provide meaningful financial support to qualified 501(c)(3) organizations, community programs, and local initiatives serving individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Our mission is to strengthen communities by partnering with organizations that deliver compassionate care, essential services, educational opportunities, and life-enriching programs. By working together, we help ensure that individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities have greater access to the resources, support, and opportunities they need to live with dignity, independence, and hope.

Every dollar raised through our statewide fundraising efforts stays focused on making a positive impact in Tennessee—empowering local organizations and improving lives one community at a time.
