Equitas Realty Launching Fall Food Drive Supporting Shelters of Saratoga

SARATOGA SPRINGS>> As temperatures drop, Equitas Realty agents will be fanning out through their communities to collect much-needed donations to Shelters of Saratoga (S.O.S.), the area’s only men’s and women’s homeless shelter. Starting November 14, families will find a door hanger with a collection bag and a list of the dozen items most in demand, including canned goods, powdered coffee creamer, sugar and Stewarts milk cards as well as socks, underwear, bedding and personal care items such as soap and toothpaste. Monetary donations are also welcome. The door hanger includes a raffle ticket to win a free turkey in time for Thanksgiving.

On Friday, Nov. 21 Equitas agents will collect bags from doorsteps throughout Saratoga Springs, Ballston Spa, Wilton and Greenfield. This is the fifth year that Janet Besheer, broker and owner of Equitas Realty, has organized agent efforts on behalf of S.O.S. through either food drives or onsite work programs. “As Thanksgiving approaches, we hope families throughout the area will fill their collection bags to benefit those most in need of the safe housing and meals that Shelters of Saratoga provides.”

S.O.S. offers food and shelter daily to the homeless or those at risk of homelessness. They also provide referrals, information and client advocacy. Their shelter, youth and mobile outreach and
affordable housing programs serve more than 1,700 people every year.

Equitas Realty is a new and innovative brokerage with more than 35 experienced agents and agent teams. It is located at 38 High Rock Ave. in Saratoga Springs.
