SARATOGA SPRINGS — Stewart’s Shops Holiday Match program has donated $1,850 to the Friends of the New York State Military Museum and Veterans Research Center at 61 Lake Ave., Saratoga Springs
The Holiday Match grant will be used for educational programs for children under the age of 18 in the Stewart’s market area. Docents at the NY State Military Museum have an ongoing program for middle school-aged students who come to the museum and tour the exhibits under the guidance of a Docent. A number of local school districts participate in this program. The Stewart’s grant will support this program.
This past holiday season Stewart’s received 1,741 applications requesting nearly $4 million in support while the company had just $2 million to donate. The Stewart’s Holiday Match has allocated nearly $34 million since the program’s inception.
