Rancho San Antonio

About Rancho San Antonio
Rancho San Antonio Boys Home is a Knights of Columbus supported organization that provides a caring, therapeutic environment where young men can develop the skills, values, and personal responsibility needed to successfully rejoin their families and communities. Founded by the Catholic Big Brothers in 1933, thousands of young men have turned to Rancho San Antonio for help and guidance. Since the 1950's, the Knights of Columbus have provided most of the fundraising for Rancho San Antonio. Within the first three years, the Knights raised enough money to build the chapel, indoor swimming pool, and the first four dormitories on the grounds. The campus sits on 19 acres and, with the continued support of the Knights of Columbus, has grown to include 11 living units, a dining hall, gymnasium, infirmary, recreation complex, football and baseball field, group home, career resource center and administration building.

Rancho San Antonio is now expanding their services offering a Youth Outpatient Center in which Rancho will offer mental health, substance use, prevention and early intervention services to the community. It also offers a Substance Use Disorder treatment program for young people helping them on the road to recovery.

Annual Raffle Fundraiser
For many years Council #3744 participated in the annual sale of raffle tickets to raise funds for Rancho San Antonio "Boys Home of the West. However, the raffle ticket sales were no longer viable and passed into history. Council #3744 currently is supporting Rancho San Antonio through proceeds from our Wine Tasting Event and direct request for contributions from the council membership.

Rancho San Antonio still holds there annual Open House and Car Show the first Sunday in May. All proceeds go to support Rancho’s programs for youth.
