An epic one-day giving event, ROC the Day, will take place on December 8th, 2011. ROC the Day will be the first of its kind in the greater Rochester area and all of New York State.

Communities across the United States have hosted similar one-day online giving events in the past several years, many of which achieved millions of dollars raised for local not-for-profits. Dave Fiedler, 2012 United Way Board Chair and President and CEO of sponsor ESL Federal Credit Union, said that the goals of this event are to raise money for all local nonprofits and help community members make a difference in a simple way. "The end-of-year holiday season can be very busy," Fiedler said, "but it's a time to give thanks for what we have in this community and remind ourselves that we can always do more to help others. Giving to ROC the Day is the perfect way to do that."

ROC the Day is powered by United Way of Greater Rochester with sponsorship support from ESL Federal Credit Union. Additional ROC the Day community partners include Ad Council of Rochester, Association of Fundraising Professionals Barrington Wade Hawkeyes Jersey , Genesee Valley Chapter, City of Rochester, Council of Agency Executives, County of Monroe, The Farash Foundation, Greater Rochester Health Foundation, The Jewish Federation Adrian Clayborn Hawkeyes Jersey , RocCity Coalition and Rochester Area Community Foundation.
