Why Give?

Your donations make it possible for Vancouver Adapted Music Society to continue to offer innovative and life-changing programs.

Through musical self-expression, our participants develop skills, confidence, and a positive self-identity.

Large or small, every donation helps. We’re looking to build a new recording studio, but at the same time we are also offering skills development, recording and performance opportunities.

Every donation makes a difference. Everyone adds to the life-enhancing programs we are able to offer.

3. Donate an Instrument

Did you know that you can support VAMS by donating your gently used musical instruments?

VAMS will adapt the instruments for aspiring musicians with physical disabilities! Donated instruments must be in good playable condition.

Contact Graeme by email at gwyman@vams.org and help to empower people with disabilities on their musical journey.

Note: We are currently not accepting donations of pianos (keyboards are okay) or drum sets. Thank you!

4. Corporate giving

Philanthropic donations separate your organization from the competition and fosters company loyalty, and brings tax breaks! We can make sure your community engagement message is seen.

5. Consider planned giving options

Leaving a legacy in your financial or estate plan can bring tax benefits. Options include leaving a bequest in your will, gift annuities, remainder trusts, endowment gifts, and donation of securities. Talk to us for more information about this.

6. Corporate sponsorship

Create a positive image while reaching out to a wider demographic. Aligning your brand with positive, life-enhancing activities will bring you promotional exposure – consider it a new marketing strategy.

7. Fundraise now
