Shelters
of Saratoga (SOS) is the only adult homeless shelter in
Saratoga, Washington, or Warren Counties. SOS has been
in existence for 18 years. SOS helps over 500 individuals
each year with shelter, food, clothing, employment, transportation
assistance and case management.
Once
someone leaves the Shelter, we offer continued
services, which are designed to prevent the recurrence
of homelessness. We also operate a NY State sponsored
Neighborhood Preservation Program. Through this
program, we have provided grant assistance to
over 100 low-income homeowners in Saratoga Springs
with rehabilitation on their owner-occupied houses.
SOS
has also provided assistance to over 50 low-income
senior citizen households in the Saratoga area
in the past 10 years with emergency, health,
welfare repairs on their owner occupied homes.
Funding for these programs comes from both the
city of Saratoga and NY State.
SOS
owns and operates two apartment buildings (a total
of seven units) for lower-income families in the
city of Saratoga Springs.
Attention
all GE employees and retirees: in 2009,
GE will be matching employee contributions

of the economic downturn.
Effective
immediately, the GE foundation will double
gifts made by GE employees and retirees
up to $25,000 (for a $50,000 match) to
qualified organizations. Shelters of
Saratoga is one of these organizations,
so please give generously.
