The Good Samaritans of the Knights Templar Foundation [GSKT] was originally formed to provide humanitarian aid to the less fortunate of the world. Our first project was at the request of Cardinal Dr. Raphael Bidawid of the Chaldean Catholic Church in Baghdad, Iraq. Cardinal Bidawid requested GSKT assistance to help some of the less fortunate in Iraq because the world aid packages of food and medicine were not reaching those who needed that help. This initiative occurred in 1998 and later [Click here for more info].

The Foundation has since expanded it’s outreach to aid the less fortunate through anonymous random acts of charity in partnership with a program known as SILENT KNIGHT. SILENT KNIGHT is based upon a book written by COLONEL [Ret.] Craig Carlson, U. S. Army, and has now expanded throughout the entire world. Full details on how to get involved in this official GSKT Project, as well as how to obtain a copy of COL. Carlson’s book, are at the SILENT KNIGHT website, cited above.

Future plans for GSKT include expanded involvement in charitable outreach to youth organizations through sponsorship of scholarships and internships with a view towards helping future generations escape poverty by providing them with education and training that will give them the credentials and experience they need to qualify for employment and thus become self-sustaining.

In this regard, we are already working with the Admiral James J. Carey Foundation [See www.AdmiralCareyFoundation.org for further information], the Future Leaders for America Foundation [See www.FutureLeadersForAmerica.org for further details], the Future Leaders Washington Scholars Internship Programs [See www.WashingtonScholars.org for further details], and the Knights Charity Organization in Denmark [See www.knightscharity.org for further details]

GSKT welcomes all who want to become involved.
