The Upstate Foundation
The Upstate Foundation is currently in its first phase of development: disseminating information about the issues important to our cause and making as many contacts across New York State as possible.
The idea for the Foundation was designed in April 2008, and first presented to the public at the annual meeting of Colgate University's Upstate Institute's Board of Directors in June 2008.
About Us
The Upstate Foundation is aiming to officially incorporate in the mid to late fall of 2008.
