The Coast Recital Society is a registered Canadian charity (140872516 RR0001) and relies on the support of music lovers in order to bring the finest recitals and chamber music to the Sunshine Coast.
Give to the CRS
Donate to our annual For the Love of Music campaign by:
- sending an Interac e-transfer to office@coastrecitalsociety.org
- mailing a cheque to: 1279 Burns Rd, Gibsons, BC V0N 1V1
- donating online via credit card at our Canada Helps charity portal.
All donations are eligible for a charitable tax receipt.
The CRS has two endowment funds held at the Sunshine Coast Foundation:
Frances Heinsheimer Wainwright Fund for Musical Excellence—this fund supports immediate needs and longer-term plans. It allows the CRS to access a portion of the principal — a vital resource for the CRS to take on special projects.
and
Coast Recital Society Endowment Fund—this fund provides annual income and is eligible for matching federal grants through the Canadian Heritage Endowment Incentives program. The CRS has no access to the principle.
To donate to either fund, please click the links above. Tax receipts will be issued by the Sunshine Coast Foundation.
Legacy Giving
After taking care of your loved ones, please consider including a gift in your will (a bequest) to the Coast Recital Society. This is a meaningful way to bring the joy of classical music to our region and support scholarship and outreach programs. Legacy gifts can also reduce income tax payable through your estate.
