In time for the holidays, the Saratoga Casino Hotel donated a variety of groceries and items to local charities in the metropolitan area.
On Wednesday, Nov. 15, the casino provided The Food Pantries with more than 400 pounds of food and personal hygiene products in its capital area. The items were collected from casino customers, and then matched at the casino. The Food Pantries anticipate that donations will go a long way when they are most in need.
"We are all very grateful to the community for the food that Saratoga Casino Hotel has collected," said Natasha Pernica, executive director of Food Pantry in the Capital District. "The £400 food and hygiene products will provide more than 300 meals to neighbors in need. Partnerships like this are a win-win, especially at a time when people are challenged to make a living and celebrate the holidays with dignity."
And on Friday, Nov. 17, the Saratoga Casino Hotel made a significant donation to the Saratoga Springs Code Blue Shelter. Located at the Soul Save Station on Henry Street, Code Blue provides a safe haven for the homeless in Saratoga Springs during the dangerously cold weather. In total, more than $500 of food and supplies were delivered to Code Blue by the casino's "Hands For Hope" community outreach team. 바카라사이트 순위
