"Thank you to everyone at the Buffalo Philharmonic. Your food drive was quite successful and the conversations we had with your guests were priceless. They were also very generous in helping us achieve our mission of feeding the hungry in our community. It was a wonderful collaboration and we collected 1,138 pounds of food and $212.20, which translates to the Food Bank being able to provide 2,040 meals. Thanks again and we look forward to doing it again next year."
