Our council has been very instrumental in the creation and support of Faithful Sheperd Catholic Schools. As of January 2006, the council has donated nearly $600,000 to the school. The Council also supports, through it's charitable gambling proceeds (at Cooper's Restaurant and Stark's Saloon in Eagan), many local organizations. These organizations include the parishes of St. John Neuman, St. Peter's, and St. Thomas Becket. Wakota Life Care and many other causes are supports through our councils donations. The council also helped form the Mother Teresa 4th Degree Assembly that meets in Rosemount, MN. In 2003, the council passed $1,000,000 in charitable donations.
