John Calvin Toll Day of Community Engagement is a longtime Union College tradition - connecting students with Schenectady and other Capital Region communities. Students work alongside local community members to support ongoing projects and activities in the community while learning about local culture and needs.
Annual Events
John Calvin Toll Day of Community Engagement
Community Connections Week
Community Connections Week offers on-campus opportunities for students to engage with several different community organizations that support the needs of Schenectady and beyond. In the previous years, we've partnered with organizations such as:
Earth Day Clean Up
Goose Hill Neighborhood
Community Carnival
Community Carnival is a Union College tradition where we invite local families to a free on-campus event that includes food, games, crafts, sports, and more! Hundreds of participants attend each year.
Volunteers are needed to help run all activities (games, crafts, sports), serve food, and set up/clean up.
