RPO Joins Foodlink Food Drive
The Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra is partnering with the League of American Orchestras for "Orchestras Feeding America 2010."

The program is a national initiative to collect food for those in need.

The RPO will also be working with Rochester's Foodlink to collect and distribute food items throughout the community.

This is the second year the RPO has joined in partnership with the League of American Orchestras and Feeding America.

Anyone dropping off 10 non-perishable food items at the RPO's offices at 108 East Avenue will receive a voucher for a pair of free tickets to certain upcoming RPO concerts.

Call (585) 454-7311 x 221 for more info, or visit RPO's web site for more information.
