  • If this is your first major cultural donation, you may be eligible for an additional tax credit for a major cultural donation. The donation must be made in cash, in an amount ranging from $5,000 to $25,000.
  • To benefit from an additional tax credit, the donation must have been made by an individual (excluding trusts) after July 3, 2013.
  • Contact the JM Canada Foundation, which will guide you through the next steps.

Make a DonationIf you are an investor holding publicly traded securities, you have the opportunity to maximize the impact of your donation, as you understand that it can play a crucial role in the life of a young artist.
