The Arc Foundation of Somerset County is happy to announce that Camp Jotoni, a special needs campground and respite program located in Warren Twp. owned and operated by The Arc of Somerset County, was the recent recipient of funds that were collected by the Knights of Columbus Council, Father Frank Russell #11409 at Our Lady of The Mount Catholic Church located in Warren Twp.
The donation of $1,500 was a result of collection in the council’s annual “Shake the Can” campaign and was presented to Camp Jotoni’s Director Aaron Westbrook by Grand Knight William Scott, Deputy Grand Knight Louis Citarella, Past Grand Knight John Java, and Past Grand Knight John Truglio.
The donation proceeds will go toward the final completion of construction of cabins 3 &4 which was constructed over the last year and came into full operation this past June.
“This donation comes at a great time for The Arc Foundation and Camp Jotoni, as we continue to secure funding that was needed to complete the buildings for economic cost increases and expanded site work that occurred up to our opening day this past June,” states Lisa Marie Arieno, Director of The Arc Foundation.
“We are proud to have helped make a difference for our neighbors at Camp Jotoni,” stated Grand Knight William Scott.
