CC Creations and Copy Corner have also supported with in-kind support of t-shirts and printing needs.
“Media support and excitement has been integral to our endeavors as we raise up all nonprofits on one day and as one community,” stated Molly Watson, media and marketing chair.
Brazos Valley Gives is 18 hours of online giving that brings the region together on one day and as one community to raise critical funding and awareness for nonprofit organizations throughout the Brazos Valley. Powered by the Community Foundation, Brazos Valley Gives provides citizens and businesses with an easy platform to support the mission and “good works” of local nonprofit organizations that serve the Brazos Valley. Brazos Valley Gives empowers individual donors and business leaders to come together to support causes close to their hearts—and, on this day, everyone can be a philanthropist.
This day of giving where you live is powered by the Community Foundation, and all donations pass-thru directly to the donor’s charity(ies) of choice. The goal for Brazos Valley Gives is $750,000.
