Support

Have we moved you to support us? Do you want to help us to make more music therapy possible in more communities?

  • Do you agree that music therapy has the potential to improve the health of Canadians?
  • Do you want to see the music therapy movement in Canada flourish and grow?
  • Have you benefited from the life-changing effects of music therapy and want to help others experience the same?
  • Do you simply want to make music therapy available to more people across Canada?

Why donate to the Music Therapy Trust? Because it feels good when you help others feel better through music therapy.

We can make music therapy accessible and available to thousands of Canadians through your support: the support of corporations, musicians, private foundations and generous individual donors.

Your financial support will advance the music therapy movement in Canada – be a part of it!

Sponsor or support our fundraising efforts

Your company’s financial support can help the Music Therapy Trust in a number of ways. We are always looking for support of our fundraising programs including:

  • March for Music Therapy: This will be our first national annual fundraising event, which will include plenty of music, a walk through cities across Canada and a party at the end.
  • Save the Centre: We need your help to keep the Music Therapy Centre in Toronto open and offering affordable music therapy to those who need it. Who knows? With enough support, we might not only save our Toronto Centre, but open new centres in additional communities!
  • Benefit concerts: Our supporters love enjoying music while raising funds for music therapy. Take part in our next benefit concert series.
Provide funding directly in support of music therapy projects

Our clients are incredibly diverse and likely close to your cause of choice! Music therapy supports children, youth, adults and seniors living with many challenges including physical disabilities, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and more. You can direct donations to any of the funds listed above or talk to us about supporting those music therapy initiatives that are most aligned with your philanthropic goals.

I chose to support the Canadian Music Therapy Trust Fund because like the trust fund, I believe in music’s healing and restorative power. And there’s a ton of evidence out there that proves music can heal when medicine cannot.
