Community

Committed to Our Community

We know how important it is to live in a great community. We invest both our time & money to support many local groups, events, and initiatives that help our neighborhoods thrive. Whether you’re looking to get involved, support a cause, or just learn more about what’s happening in the Capital Region, this is a great place to start.


Big Bethlehem Yard Sale

The Big Bethlehem Yard Sale is a community-wide event that turns spring cleaning into something meaningful. Each year, neighbors across Bethlehem will host yard sales, connect with one another, and pledge a portion of their proceeds to local non-profits. It’s a simple, fun way to clear your clutter, give back, and be part of a new community tradition.

Bethlehem Community Fund

Since 1942 the Bethlehem Community Fund has quietly helped children, families, individuals, and elderly people living in the Bethlehem Community whose needs fall through the cracks of traditional programs. Typically, they are facing economic difficulties because of job loss, disaster, divorce, illness, or other life changes.

Bethlehem Neighbors

We are Bethlehem Neighbors, a community of seniors who believe in helping each other so that we can continue to age comfortably and safely in our own homes. Some members help other members of our community who need assistance. Other members request services provided by those members. Some do both. It’s a simple but very powerful idea.
