    Ed Porter

    Community activist genuinely cares about people


    If one were to imagine that Saratoga were a talk show that needed an official emcee, the name that might first pop into mind to fill such a role would be that of Ed Porter. Ed Porter is that friendly, that expansive, that articulate. He genuinely cares about people and it shows through his every action and gesture. He's been on the board of Saratoga's Sister City for the past five years. He's served on the board of Saratoga Rotary for the past six, heading up We Care, a committee that sends out cards, flowers or greetings for such family milestones as the birth of a grandchild, for achievements, in times of trouble and bereavement. He's also involved in the Hearing Institute for Children and Adults, which supplies hearing aids for those who can't afford them; the Saratoga Historical Society; and the Saratoga Men's Club.   More
