A Message from your New Chairman
Rudy Ramirez:
Brothers I want to thank you all for a great year so far. Without you all, we wouldn’t be able to do all the things we do. The month of October was full of activities. We had another Great Knights Classic Golf Tournament that raised over $12000 for scholarships. We had a number of successful fundraisers including Texas Rangers ALCS and World Series ticket raffles, and football pick ‘em for the first half of the NFL season. We had a great turnout in Houston for our tailgate and soccer game between FC Dallas and the Houston Dynamo. Brotherhood has stepped up big time. We are now in our big philanthropy part of the year with our Thanksgiving food drive in full effect and our Elves Toy drive on the horizon. The year is winding down, but our work is still going strong. Your continued support is greatly appreciated
I hope you can Join us in our continued work for the community !!
In Eternal Brotherhood,
Rudy Ramirez
DFWAA Chairman 2023
