The Knights and members of The Equestrian, Secular and Chapterial Order of Saint Joachim raise funds in order to contribute to worthy causes around the world. The Order prefers to make contributions directly to small, grassroots charities that are otherwise overlooked and where The Order's donation will have the greatest impact on people's lives. This is in keeping with the mission of the Order, as described in 1821, as helping "the military, the poor, widows, and orphans." The American Commandery is registered as a 501(c)3 charitable organization with the IRS to reflect its charitable mission.
