M&T Charitable Foundation Grants $12,500 to Hope Springs

We are proud to announce that Ulster County Habitat for Humanity has received a $12,500 grant from The M&T Charitable Foundation in support of the Hope Springs Development in Saugerties. The funds will go toward front doors for the first phase of homes in the development — a detail that feels both practical and deeply symbolic. Every family that crosses that threshold as a homeowner for the first time will do so in part because of M&T’s commitment to our community.

Special shout out to Gabby and Marjorie who visited our build site during one of our coldest days this winter to see for themselves the work we are doing. That dedication speaks volumes about M&T’s genuine partnership with our mission.

We look forward to returning to M&T next year as the second phase of Hope Springs nears completion.

Thank you M&T Charitable Foundation for opening doors – literally – for Ulster County families!
