SARATOGA SPRINGS —With 2020 coming to a close, it has become apparent that, now more than ever, it takes a community to get through these difficult times. We have all watched the devasting effects COVID-19 has had on our local businesses and many of those local businesses have had to close because they could not support themselves.
In the spirit of the holidays, Denise A. Coté CEO of Home of the Good Shepherd, has made an extremely generous donation to support the Saratoga Springs Downtown Business Association (DBA) by purchasing gift cards for all of the employees at Home of the Good Shepherd. Home of the Good Shepherd has five Assisted Living and Enhanced Assisted Living Communities located throughout Saratoga County and it is one of the largest employers in Saratoga County with over 300 employees. Coté purchased gift cards for all staff totaling over $17,000 to support our local businesses.
Coté stated, “I am very thankful to all the staff that have been here day in and day out going above and beyond to keep our residents safe and healthy.” “I also see the devasting effects the virus has had on our local economy and I wanted to not only thank our staff, but also support these businesses.”
