Get ready, Saratoga! The next issue of saratoga living hits newsstands on December 6, and we’re giving you an exclusive sneak peek of one of the issue’s most important features: our first-ever “10 Under 40” list, the young people we feel are the future of philanthropy in Saratoga Springs. The honorees are philanthropists Dave and Stephanie Collins, representing Wellspring; the Saratoga Performing Arts Center’s (SPAC’s) Junior Committee, consisting of Amanda Ettinger, Ashley Budd, Caitlin Goetz, India Adams, Katrina Railton and Samantha Kercull; Aliza Pickering, vegetable manager at Pitney Meadows Community Farm; Meredith Woolford, executive director of the Saratoga Hospital Foundation; Amanda Vance, Thoroughbred trainer, New Vocations Racehorse Adoption Program; Carmine DeCrescente and Matt DeCrescente, both representing Alzheimer’s Association of Northeastern New York; Krystle Nowhitney Hernandez, deputy director of the Saratoga County Economic Opportunity Council; Jahkeen Hoke, co-founder and chief development officer of 4th Family; Lizzie Hunter, senior manager, community development at the American Cancer Society; and Mark Duffy, community engagement leader for SEFCU’s Holiday Sharing Program.
