ROC the Day is a 24-hour, online giving extravaganza powered by United Way of Greater Rochester and the Finger Lakes that takes place annually on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, also known as Giving Tuesday. ROC the Day gives people in our community an opportunity to support not-for-profit organizations doing great work in the nine-county Greater Rochester area. This year, ROC the Day will take place on November 28 from midnight to 11:59 pm.
Donors (our fabulous ROCstars) can make a real difference by giving to one or multiple organizations to support their philanthropic passions—whether that passion is for animals, arts & culture, education, health, religion, the environment, human services, or general community benefit. To make a gift, visit roctheday.org(a secure online giving platform) on November 28 and search for Hilton Education Foundation. It's an easy, one-stop way to fill your "cart" with causes that matter most to you. Let your friends, family, co-workers and social networks know about HEF, and encourage others to ROC the Day, too! All ROC the Day gifts will help local organizations and individuals in need.

These pictures are from a field trip for Hilton High School Alternative Education students to participate in team building activities at Camp Arrowhead. This trip included field games and a low ropes course. This was an important experience for the students because it required teamwork which promoted bonding as a group. Due to the small size, it was important for students to feel a sense of belonging and accepted by one another.
These pictures are from a field trip for Hilton High School students to attend Education Day at Frontier Field on May 19, 2022. HEF helped fund the field trip for the Alternative Education department. Schools groups are encouraged to attend for team building and to learn about various careers before, during, and after the game. Activities outside of traditional class instruction are important for culture. And there will also be an opportunity to learn about various careers. Students will have an opportunity to learn about various possible careers for success with life after high school.

The Hilton Networking Group is a private, no-cost organization of individual business owners and community leaders that serve the Hilton community and are engaged in networking and referring business to one another. You can think of us as a "tip club". However, we operate differently in that we actively communicate and network with each other and our clients/patients continuously. We also hold ourselves to be accountable to one another and treat our network referrals as an extension of each others' business. We meet once per month locally at the Hilton Family Restaurant to learn from each other, share successes and challenges AND give back to our community.
