Make a Donation

Your donation can be made in several instalments and by various means (cheque, credit card, cash).

*Tax receipts are issued for donations of $20 or more.

Making a donation to the JM Canada Foundation in memory of someone who has passed on allows you to convey your condolences to family members while making a gesture of generosity that will directly support emerging artists and make music more accessible for all.

*Upon request, we can also send an “In Memoriam” donation form to the funeral parlor of your choice and send the grieving family a sympathy card letting them know that a donation has been made in memory of their loved one.

This funding program aims to encourage individuals to make major donations of $5,000 to $25,000 to a cultural organization that is near and dear to them.

In fact, a Quebec program offering an additional 25% tax credit has been established to encourage major donations to culture.

Two government matching programs will also take these exceptional contributions into account. This gives us the potential to increase the funds raised in the following ways:

1. via the Canadian Heritage program, which matches donations up to 100%
2. via the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec’s Mécénat Placements Culture program, which also matches up to 100%.

The total amount of these exceptional donations, as well as the matched amounts, will be placed in an endowment fund in perpetuity, from which JM Canada will receive 3.5% annual interest.
