Charities We Support
Every Drink Gives Back
Electric City SummerFest was built with community giving at its core. Each week, the festival highlights a local charity partner, and $1 from every drink purchased at participating partner bars and restaurants is donated to support local causes.
By attending SummerFest, grabbing a drink, and supporting downtown businesses, guests are also helping fund organizations that serve children, families, seniors, youth programs, cancer support initiatives, and neighbors across Schenectady.
