The programs include Fixing Instruments for Kids in Schools, Church Street School for Music & Art, The Pinwheel Project, Music Unites, The American Symphony Orchestra and Young Audiences New York.

Dorf’s annual series of tribute concerts at Carnegie Hall have raised over $400,000 in net dollars for charity programs over the past six years.
