As a firm, we are proud to be a longstanding corporate partner to institutions that advance education, health, the arts, and social equity. We view community engagement not as an obligation, but as an extension of our values and our responsibility as legal professionals.
Organizations We Support
Our community partnerships span a broad network of nonprofits and civic organizations, including those dedicated to:
- Providing access to educational opportunities, regardless of socioeconomic status
- Supporting underserved communities on the path to equity and justice for all
- Bettering the Capital Region community in which we live and work
Proctors Theatre Ambassador Program
We are proud to co-sponsor this community and workforce development initiative, the Ambassador Program, with BST & Co. for a five-year period beginning in 2024. First launched in downtown Schenectady in 2008 in partnership with the Schenectady City Mission, The Ambassador Program provides second chance employment for those in need. Ambassadors in their distinctive red jackets can be found waving flashlights, helping people cross streets safely, suggesting parking and dining options, and opening doors to welcome visitors to the theatre venues. Ambassadors receive wages, soft skills training, and support. Numerous participants have gone on to receive full-time employment at the theatre and other connected businesses. Learn More Here

Getting out of the office and involved in giving back to our community is an important part of our WOH culture. Employees are given paid time off to participate in volunteer opportunities throughout the year.
