Sep. 29—The Geneva-Madison Council presented a check for the students of Broadmoor School in Lake County as part of its K of C Measure-Up Campaign last spring.

Principal Lisa DeRosa informed the Knights that this gift will help to finance communication devices for students with speech challenges, according to a release from the council.

Nick Ferrante has chaired Measure Up for many years. Paul Wadowick coordinates for a group of Knights to make a personal delivery.

The Piovarchy family generously allowed the Knights to collect at their Giant Eagle grocery stores in Ashtabula and Geneva, the release stated.

Knights manned the donation stations for 36 hours over three days and collected a $4,200 this year, which exceeded expectations, they said.

All of this money is being distributed to local people with special needs at Broadmoor School and Special Olympics of Ashtabula County, the release stated.
