Welcome to the Schenectady ELFUN Chapter website.
The Schenectady Chapter was one of the original founding chapters and the first organization Chair was from Schenectady. We have continued in the forefront of the Elfun missions as they have changed through the years.
The Schenectady Chapter was physically (by membership) one of the largest, and during Elfun's volunteer thrust was the leader or among the first to institutionalize the following volunteer initiatives: Computer Rehab and donate to charities; Talking Books for the Blind repair;Toy Modification for the physically impaired.
When GE Volunteers was formed, the Schenectady Chapter placed these and all other volunteer programs under the auspices of the Volunteers organization. We encourage all our members to volunteer for the good of their communities and many of our members do.
7/15/2010!!! Great things are happening in the Science Education arena!! Elfuns continue their connections with children and science: Science in the Summer, Global Research Center family day, and the Dudley Observatory. These are our next generation of great thinkers and we are working to keep them stimulated. See what we are doing and come out and join us. It is fun and rewarding.
