Patron Donations are Vital…

As a not-for-profit Canadian organization, Friends of Music depends on the support of patrons and donors.  Donations by our subscribers have traditionally paid for about one third of our costs.  We could not continue to provide concerts without this generous donation support by our audience.

Your donation helps us to:

  • Bring world-class performers to you, close to home
  • Encourage a range of artists across Northumberland County
  • Support Canadian musicians as they build their reputation and careers (remember we helped launch Angela Hewitt’s career)
  • Continue music education in schools, by the same world-class performers, through our Outreach Program
  • Gain additional funding by demonstrating community support to corporations and government – in effect leveraging your donation

Thank you

When you donate, you will receive a tax receipt for donations of $20 or more.

How to Donate

When to Donate – There are Lots of Options!

When you buy a ticket to a cultural event in Northumberland, especially an FOM event, please consider making a donation to FOM to invest in future possibilities.

A Gift to Someone who has Everything
Are you puzzled about what to give friends or family members who “have everything”?  Honour their special days – birthdays, anniversaries, milestones – by a donation to FOM.

Create a Musical Legacy
Let your passion for music define your legacy.  Or, remember someone who loved music.  Please consider designing a charitable gift to realize your philanthropic objectives.  Ways to give:

    1. A charitable bequest in your will
    2. A charitable gift annuity
    3. A charitable remainder trust
    4. Life insurance, naming Friends of Music as a beneficiary

Feel free to contact us about your ideas to help FOM continue to enliven the cultural life of Northumberland County.
