This fundraiser benefits the Schenectady City Schools Community Schools Initiative which provides students and their families access to medical and mental health services, food, clothing, childcare, transportation, and enrichment programs.

Last year, Schenectady Rotary provided a community resource room at an William C. Keane Elementary school thanks to your generous support where families can access these services and various household amenities.  Schenectady Rotary has committed to continuing the relationship at Keane Elementary and will be supporting the school’s efforts for literacy programming and resources as well as their initiatives to increase regular attendance rates.  We all know that engaged students and families result in a desire to learn and thus thrive at school. 

Community Schools are public schools emphasizing family engagement, strong community partnerships and additional supports for students and families. Community Schools are designed to counter environmental factors that impede student achievement. Fundamentally, Community Schools coordinate and maximize public, non-profit and private resources to deliver critical services to students and their families, thereby increasing student achievement and generating other positive outcomes.
