Charity
The proceeds from every concert of the World Doctors Orchestra go to one or two selected non-profit medical aid organizations which are chosen by the concerts’ local organizers. The selected charity organization and local organizers work together closely to promote the concerts and to raise awareness of the recipients’ initiatives. Since its foundation in 2008, WDO has raised nearly 2 million Euros for medical charity.
