Togetherhood

TOGETHERHOOD is the Y's signature program for its commitment to Social Responsibility.

At the Y, we are dedicated to strengthening the community by giving back and supporting our neighbors. Members are able to share ideas and plan projects that have a direct and positive impact on our community. 

The TOGETHERHOOD committee includes 10 local Saratoga Y members and is led by two co-chairs. Each year the committee identifies, plans and implements four service projects.
