Saratoga Juice Bar will be hosting a reception to distribute donations to the residents of 100 to 108 Woodlawn Ave. in downtown Saratoga Springs who lost everything in a fire July 28.

On Friday, Aug. 2, Saratoga Juice Bar held a fundraiser where the staff donated the day’s entire tips to the fire victims. Saratoga Juice Bar owners Christel and Colin MacLean matched this total amount raised in a separate pledge to the victims.

“While we were happy to raise a total of $550, we decided to take it a step further and reach out to the fire victims to put together a wish list of items that they would like to have replaced,” said store manager Chelsey Backus. “We will be posting a list of these items at Saratoga Juice Bar so people can sign up and donate.”

The items will be given away at a reception held at Circus Café on Tuesday, Aug. 13.

If you are interested in donating an item, please stop by Saratoga Juice Bar at 382 Broadway.
