SARATOGA SPRINGS — On Thursday, Oct. 9, a festive gathering occurred at Longfellows Restaurant to benefit an important cause in the community. Project Lift is a free after-school prevention program operating for 30 years in the Saratoga Springs School District that serves grades one through five. It is a program that places emphasis on positive youth development, including self-esteem, good decision-making and communication skills. Thursday’s event raised nearly $50,000 for Project Lift!

Operated by Franklin Community Center, this unique program is designed to equip children with information to make important decisions on their own. For more information, visit FranklinCommunityCenter.org.
