Sometimes, what with Orange Wednesdays (a 2-for-1 cinema ticket offer for UK subs), you can forget about some of the other collateral that Orange are marketing out there. One particularly good piece, which popped back up on my radar recently, is Orange RockCorps. What be that, you ask? Well:
Orange and RockCorps come together to help you to give ?something back to your community. Take part in Orange RockCorps ?this year and help transform your local area. Over 40,000 people have already given their four hours and celebrated together at more than 20 live gigs.
All you need to do is join up and give four hours of your time to an Orange RockCorps community project in your area. In return, you’ll get a ticket to one of two exclusive gigs with performances from big name artists. You can’t buy a ticket. You can’t win a ticket. You have to earn a ticket.
And it doesn’t stop there. When you join up, you also become part of the Orange RockCorps Collective – giving you access to thousands of selected volunteering opportunities from around the UK.
Cool eh? The video I caught up on YouTube (here) is a nice promo for the RockCorps, but if you want a lot more info, go here. Seriously, check it out – it’s a really worthwhile project.
