Niskayuna Community Foundation: 2025 Niska-Day Parade Grand Marshall

25 Years of Investing in Local Solutions

It started as a community-wide brainstorming session on ideas to engage Niskayuna’s young people. When the conversation revealed broader community needs, the goal evolved to making life better for everyone in town. That’s how the Niskayuna Community Foundation (NCF) was born nearly 25 years ago – by the community, for the community.  NCF is an affiliate and geographic fund of the Community Foundation for the Greater Capital District.

NCF Board President Allison Schultz remarked, “NCF is grateful and we’re especially honored to be Grand Marshal for this year’s Niska Day Parade as the Foundation celebrates our 25th anniversary of service to the community. NCF has proudly marched in this event for many years because the Niska Day Parade unites our community in an extraordinary feel-good way! Schultz added that NCF’s Board of Directors is planning a slate of community-wide anniversary celebration events, which will include a Day of Service on June 7, 2025. “NCF’s milestone encourages us to reflect, recommit to our mission, and look ahead to the next 25 years of service—and, of course, we’ll be celebrating with our community, beginning with the Niska Day Parade!”
