SARATOGA SPRINGS — On April 4 the Saratoga Springs Rotary partnered with the Salvation Army to prepare and serve breakfast to over 35 people in need. The Rotarians began preparing breakfast at 6:30 a.m. as well as 60 sandwiches and 25 individual servings of soup.
This is a five-day-a-week event for the Salvation Army as they help fulfill their mission of helping those in need. They have no full-time cook and each day can be a challenge.
“Rotary believes together we see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change – across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves. This morning was just another way to help our local community,” said Jill Robbins who organized the event and Ballston Spa National Bank Vice President of Deposit Support Services.
The Rotary Club of Saratoga Springs serves the community by providing funding for local organizations and youth scholarships, as well as through service-oriented events where the Club's members offer their time and labor to an organization.
