“The Brazos Valley Symphony Orchestra is one of more than 100 nonprofit organizations participating in Brazos Valley Gives this month, and the group is eager to be part of a community-wide effort … to raise money and awareness for local nonprofits across the seven counties in Brazos Valley,” writes Andy Krauss on Monday (10/19) at KBTX-TV (College Station, TX). “Their annual 18-hour giving day is set for October 27. ‘One of the things that we’re so excited to be able to do, and why we hope that people will continue to donate to us, is we do so many things that are family-oriented, like children’s concerts and symphony goes to schools,’ BVSO Executive Director Mary Koeninger said. ‘This is an opportunity for us to give back to the Brazos Valley as well.’ Along with providing concerts geared toward the whole family, Koeninger says the BVSO also brings a lot of business to town…. Koeninger says she’s very proud the BVSO is involved in a community-wide activity that positively affects such a wide variety of organizations…. Last year, Brazos Valley Gives raised over $363,000 benefitting each of the nonprofit organizations that participated, according to their website.”
