Who Are We
The Knights of Pythagoras is a youth organization consisting of boys between
the ages of 9 to 20 and sponsored by Prince Hall Masons. We have five active
councils in the state (Roanoke, S. Boston, Richmond, Petersburg and Norfolk).
Additionally, we are in the process of reactivating a previously established council
in Bowling, Va. Green, Va. Our Mentors are Prince Hall Masons who are
professionals in their respective fields and leaders in their communities and
churches.
Our Mission Statement
To share, teach and demonstrate the principles of manhood to young men, enabling them to
achieve their dreams and become men who are strong, responsible and productive. We
promote family values and train our youth in the areas of Leadership, Responsibility, and
Brotherhood while instilling the values of Integrity First, Service Before Self, and Excellence In
All We Do. We’re dedicated to providing young men with the tools/skills needed to reach their
maximum potential as they become the leaders of today as well as tomorrow!
