During our November 2018 meeting, three commendable Capital District charities were nominated: Capital Roots, Samaritan Counseling Center, and Girls on the Run Capital District.

Capital Roots was our November recipient of our collective giving. A record $17,200 has been collected and was presented to Capital Roots during a visit and in-depth tour at their impressive Troy location on December 18, 2018.

The funds will go directly to the Produce Project with stipends for youth using sustainable agriculture as a tool to develop critical job and life skills. The student trainees joined us at the meeting (only a few agreed to be included in the above photo.)
