Los Angeles, CA. Philharmonic fans can listen online to their favorite musicians, but due to the continuing COVID-19 crisis, all LA Phil concerts at Walt Disney Concert Hall have been canceled. Dozens of performances from the Opening Night Concert & Gala on September 22nd up until New Year’s Eve with Pink Martini. Philharmonic leaders wrote this about the cancelation: “While this news may not be surprising given the events of the past few months, it is heartbreaking, nonetheless. Sharing in the communal experience of live music is at the heart of what we do, and we know it is a vital part of your life too.”
Even though the performances are canceled, the LA Philharmonic is finding a way to connect with supporters. Including

Los Angeles, CA. Random Acts is a global non-profit organization based in Los Angeles that has, since late March, committed itself to partner with other non-profit organizations in order to raise funds for those in need during the COVID-19 pandemic. One program from earlier this year included Feeding Our Nurses (seen above) where Random Acts partnered with Feed Hero Nurses to donate a six-inch Subway sandwich to frontline medical workers for every Subway purchase over $15 made on Postmates.
The non-profit organization was able to successfully initiate Feeding Our Nurses due to the establishment of The Random Acts Support Program where readers nominate an organization from their community affected by the pandemic.
More recently, Regional Random Acts Representative Holly Olsen contacted a team of teachers and social workers located in Minneapolis, Minnesota, who are working to support students enrolled in Sanford Middle School. Sanford’s Care Team is advocating to help these families through the donations of toys, board games, and other recreational activities during the difficult aftermath of the George Floyd protests and COVID-19 quarantine.
Olsen was determined to help these students and shopped in several local Minneapolis stores for a variety of toys middle-schoolers can enjoy during the summer. Eventually, Olsen was able to donate a large amount of recreational merchandise for Sanford’s Care Team, who would then give these items to families enrolled in the public school.

The global non-profit organization continues to promote positive causes related to the COVID-19 pandemic through blog posts on its social media and website.
If you know an organization providing support for those affected by COVID-19 that could use more help and attention, fill out this form, which will be submitted to representatives of Random Acts and may be promoted through its support program. Additionally, if you have the means to donate to Random Acts Support Program, which goes to charitable causes mentioned above and more, click here to donate to the organization.

Random Acts inspires many amazing things around the world every day — from small acts of kindness, such as inspiring someone to buy a stranger a cup of coffee, to much bigger acts of kindness like building a school in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua.
All of these acts of kindness contribute to a bigger story, a message that Random Acts embodies and promotes — that you too can conquer the world one random act of kindness at a time.
