Over the past seven years the League’s Orchestras Feeding America food drive has seen over 450 orchestras from across the country collect and donate nearly 475,000 pounds of food to people struggling with hunger. The efforts of these orchestras have helped spread the word about how and why orchestras are so necessary to their communities, beyond providing amazing music.
The League is now conducting the 2016 Orchestras Feeding America national food drive. And we are asking for your help by participating in this year’s effort. Sign up for the 2016 food drive taking place this March. If your orchestra has already conducted a food drive, we invite you to add your food pounds to the national total. Check out our fact sheet to learn more about Orchestras Feeding America. For information about how to get involved, visit americanorchestras.org or contact Laura Lebow at fooddrive@americanorchestras.org.
