Good news for Pittsburgh Symphony

Amid all the bad news regarding the economy and the fiscal futures of many non-profits, I thought I would post this news story about the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. Yesterday it was announced that the orchestra has raised over $48 million towards repairs and its endowment, and it is well on its way to reaching its $80 million campaign goal. Although it will undoubtably be difficult to raise an additional $31 million in this fiscal climate, I'm sure everyone is happy to hear something positive and optimistic coming from a performing arts organization these days.

  • umm, the only thing positive about this article is the "spin." why on earth would anyone send out a press release announcing that they were 60% to goal!?! Only $31 million to go? Err, that's decidedly NOT good news in this economic climate! In fact, it's pretty sad/scary.
