At Franklin Community Center, we are committed to providing every child with access to positive and enriching experiences. Through our Student & Family Services, we ensure that families across Saratoga County receive essential support through our free assistance programs. From school supplies and Halloween costumes to winter coats, boots, and holiday assistance, these programs offer crucial resources to families in need—thanks largely to the generosity of local donations.
For more information on our Student & Family Services, please email Samantha Porcello or call 518.587.9826 x 225.
Some program applications are available online for your convenience. If you’re unable to apply online, you can complete an application over the phone or in person with assistance from a staff member or volunteer. All applicants must provide proof of eligibility at the time of application or shortly after. To qualify for certain programs, participants must receive public assistance, such as SNAP or free/reduced school lunches, or be referred by a partner organization or school in specific cases.
