Starting this weekend, Friends and Fans of the MSO have an opportunity to support your Iron Range orchestra by making a donation to our Give To The Max fundraising campaign! Minnesota's statewide fundraising campaign, Give to the Max, is celebrating its 17th anniversary in 2025. “Research shows that giving from individual donors is the largest source of philanthropy for nonprofits each year,” said Jenna Ray, executive director and CEO of GiveMN. “Year after year, Give to the Max highlights how individual generosity creates a movement of collective giving, raising millions $5, $25, $50 at a time.” On November 1, you can help the Mesabi Symphony Orchestra reach it's 2025 fundraising goal of $12,000, or the cost of one concert series. We are grateful for people like you who inspire us to develop engaging concert experiences for the people of the Iron Range and Arrowhead region. Give To The Max runs through November 20, culminating on Give To The Max Day. Mark your calendar and stay tuned for additional details and the link to make your online donation later this week! (fb)
