Donate to The Franklin Community Center Food Pantry: Food Assistance For Residents in Saratoga Springs

“Never worry about numbers.  Help one person at a time, and always start with the person nearest you.” ~Mother Teresa

Imagine going to feed your family, reaching into your refrigerator or pantry only to find the shelves bare. Unfortunately, for too many local families, this is a harsh reality.

Rising economic costs have more and more people turning to services, like our food pantry, to help make ends meet. Located at our office at 10 Franklin Street, we house a food pantry with non-perishable items,  for individuals and families in need of a little help.

Stocked solely by community donations, our food pantry is open year-round, Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m., except on holidays. With the help of donations from generous community members, we are able to continue this beneficial service to less fortunate residents in and around the city of Saratoga.
