Why Support the
Orchestra?
-
- "If we are to
contribute to a livable society, we must strive to assure
that poetry exists to temper technology; that music enlivens
and enhances our educational growth; that dance and
sculpture challenge our imaginations as much as any new
scientific discovery."
- W.A. Reynolds
-
- A quality orchestra is a sign of a
healthy community. The existence of Orchestra London assists
businesses and learning institutions in attracting quality

quality of life of our region and is a factor in evaluation
of our city and province as a potential relocation site for
the corporate community.

programs, outreach projects, and new artistic endeavors. Orchestra

Endowment Program
|
An endowment is a permanent fund bestowed
upon an individual or institution, to be used for a specific
purpose. Permanent endowments are income-earning funds that
benefit the charity in perpetuity. Donors' original gifts
are never spent — only the earnings are used by the
charity.
The Orchestra London Endowment
Program provides you with the opportunity to assist with the
long term support of specific areas of our organization. This
program includes, but is not limited to, the endowment of our
Conductors, Concertmaster, Principal Chairs, education, and
our capital fund. An endowment may be established through a
gift of cash or securities or through a pledge payable over
three to five years. Orchestra London is pleased to work with
several industry leaders for the investment of our endowment
funds, including the London Community Foundation, and The
Ontario Arts Endowment Program. |
