Rotterdam Square is proud to be a community partner. We strive to meet community challenges through a combination of employee volunteerism, financial support, in-kind donations and partnerships with non-profit organizations which have missions consistent with our vision and values. 

Community Partnerships

City Mission of Schenectady: 
Rotterdam Square has a continuing relationship with the City Mission of Schenectady. The Schenectady City Mission seeks to comprehensively meet the needs of the poor in a manner that dignifies and strengthens the individual, the family and the community. Rotterdam Square employees are committed to giving back to the community and enjoy volunteering by serving food or participating in programs like the Back to School Boost School Supply drive.

Salvation Army:  
Beginning in early November, the Salvation Army's Red Kettle Campaign will be at Rotterdam Square.  Help the needy by donating, or volunteer to ring the bell to help low-income families in Schenectady County. To learn more about how you can help, please call the Salvation Army.

Contribution Requests
Each year, Rotterdam Square will contribute a preset amount of funds in the form of Gift Cards, merchandise and use of property to a diverse group of organizations. Hundreds of requests are anticipated each year. Donation recipients may include civil organizations' education programs; food banks; foundations; hospitals and health care organizations; youth programs; performing arts and museums and many more. Each request is reviewed carefully, however, not all requests can be granted.
