Generosity Report
Thank you for another incredible year of transforming the lives of people facing homelessness in our community. Your contributions provided a path to a better life for hundreds through stabilization services, safe shelter, and most importantly, the sense of community and support needed to guide people on their journey.
2023 is looking bright. We’ll begin our long-anticipated construction project to rehabilitate and expand our aging shelters on Walworth Street; and install new safety and accessibility features thanks to your 2019 Shelter Safety and Accessibility contributions. In addition to rehabilitating our shelters, we will open 9 new supportive housing units for those experiencing chronic homelessness. We are now also a Health Home agency. Our Health Home staff provides health and housing care management services to Medicaid participants throughout Saratoga County.
Thank you for providing hope and transforming the lives of people facing homelessness in our community.
Sincerely,
Duane J. Vaughn
