Make a Gift
YOU are part of it!
When you make a gift to the Victoria Symphony, you become part of a community of donors who believe in the power of music.
For more than eighty years, VS has been at the artistic heart of civic life ensuring live orchestral music is heard on stage, in schools, and around the community. Throughout the season, more than 130,000 people find themselves moved by VS concerts and programming.
Every gift made by a donor is a part of this work.
However, year-over-year we struggle with the increasing costs in all areas of our artistic production and operations, which have been intensified by the lingering effects of COVID-19, and face dwindling government grants. That is why now more than ever, your support makes all the difference! When you make a gift to the Victoria Symphony, you become an important part of how we keep the music playing on stage and in the community, ensuring ticket prices remain accessible, and supporting the musicians and programming that inspires us and educates the next generation.
Without generous gifts from individuals like you, none of that would be possible.

Giving a gift to VS supports the music you love and an organization you trust, and is a smart way to keep money in your pocket with a charitable tax receipt recognizing your part in making this all possible.
