The San Bernardino Symphony was the recent recipient of a $4,000 donation from Bank of America in support of programs benefitting local youth. The grant was presented to members of the Symphony’s Funds Development Committee last week by Mortgage Servicing Unit Manager Danny De La Torre, on behalf of Al Argüello, Bank of America Inland Empire Market President. Funds will be used to support Symphony programs that benefit local teens under Bank of America’s Workforce Development and Education Priority. These programs include the Symphony Debs and Red Tie Associates, a certificated youth volunteer initiative which provides job skills training to high school students interested in the arts. Funds will also support Maestro in the Schools which brings Symphony conductor Frank Paul Fetta into middle and high school orchestra classrooms to work directly with students. “We are so pleased to have been selected for such a generous gift,” said Symphony Board of Directors President, Dr. Judith Valles. “Bank of America has been a dedicated supporter of the Symphony’s youth programs for many years and we have seen the many positive results that occur when young people are able to experience the arts.” Citing the Symphony’s contributions to community quality of life, Cathy Paredes, Vice President/Project Manager with Bank of America’s Enterprise Business and Community Engagement team additionally stated, “We’re very proud to partner with outstanding organizations like the San Bernardino Symphony to help make the Inland Empire a better place.” For more information about the San Bernardino Symphony’s youth programs for students Kindergarten through twelfth grade, please contact Symphony Executive Director Dr. Anne Viricel at (909) 381-5388.
