Goal

Thank you everyone for all of the tremendous love 💕 and support!  


Thank you again to everyone who made our Dream Team Fundraiser such a success - what a gift it is to be kicking off the new year with strong community support and the freedom to write checks to keep our progress going!  Our community can now unlock just over $110,000 of our $4.15M in reimbursable grants!


These funds will pay for the next phase of work which is now well underway.  We here at Electric City Community Grocery (ECCG) are thankful for the 1,100+ Member Owners (MOs) from our community that have helped make this dream a reality. The ECCG Team is excited about all the plans and progress scheduled for 2025.  The road to opening a new food co-op is long and there are many costs along the way.  

This donation page will remain open and is your way to contribute directly to the ECCG to ensure a Grand Opening as soon as possible.  Donations like your is how all new co-ops get started - lots of people putting their time, skills and money to work, together, to build something we all own and benefit from. As the new year gets rolling, we'll have additional ways you can help.  

Please pass this note along to your friends, family, and others you think may be interested in helping our co-op move forward. 


To avoid processing fees and ensure that 100% of your contribution goes to our co-op, you are welcome to write a check to "Electric City Food Cooperative, Inc" with "Dream Team" in the memo-line and mail to: 


Electric City Food Co-op

PO Box 1416

Schenectady, NY 12301


If you'd prefer to make a larger, tax-deductible donation that will benefit your co-op, we have a way to do that too - please contact eatlocal@electriccityfood.coop and Andy Gladwin, co-chair of our Capital Campaign Team will follow-up with you.



Thank you so much, we appreciate you and all of our 1,100+ MOs.
