Supporting Center Hill Children’s Mission

The Knights will hold a fund raiser at the Prima Italian Steakhouse on Tuesday, March 14th from 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Suleiman Restaurants will graciously donate a large portion of your food purchase to support our charity. The fund raiser helps fund the Center Hill Children’s Mission. The mission is a place which provides a safe, fun, loving, and Christian-based environment for children during the summer and after school. They provide free meals and tutoring with the goal of setting children up for success in both school and family life.

There are two ways you can help support this mission:

Write “K of C” at the top of the bill which you’ll leave with your server. OR,

Make a donation at the Knight’s table near the restaurant’s entrance. For each donation, you will receive a $10 off discount voucher for future meals at Havana, Legacy and Prima Italian Steakhouse Restaurants.

Phone-in orders or dine-in reservations can be made by calling 352-391-9939. It’s best to make reservations for dinner.

Come have a delicious lunch or dinner and help bolster this worthwhile charity. Thank you in advance for your support.
