Amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Visit Rochester is sharing a message of hope and resilience with the Greater Rochester community under the theme of “Rochester Rising.”

Visit Rochester today released a new video which aims to provide a message of hope and resilience with the Greater Rochester community. The video message notes that while we navigate these unprecedented times, there are a few things we know for certain. We know that neighbors will continue to help one another, that our community will continue to rally around local businesses and that once again, as we have many times before, Rochester will rise.

“Now more than ever it is critical that we come together to take care of one another and rally around the Greater Rochester community,” said Don Jeffries, President & CEO, Visit Rochester. “During this time of great uncertainty, we remain committed to the many organizations, businesses and people who make Rochester an incredible place to live, work and visit. Our team will continue providing and information and resources to local tourism and hospitality businesses and employees, as well as providing support to our community as a whole.”
