Help us share the gift of music!
Music has a remarkable power. It connects generations, builds confidence in young people, preserves cultural traditions, and brings joy to those who need it most. Through our programs, we are working to ensure that music—especially Canada’s rich fiddle and folk traditions—remains vibrant, accessible, and deeply meaningful in our community. But we can’t do it alone. Your support helps us bring the gift of music to people of all ages and backgrounds.
1. Celebrate Seniors: Music That Bridges Generations
Our Celebrate Seniors Program brings the energy and warmth of young musicians directly into limited-mobility seniors’ centres.
For many seniors, live music is more than entertainment—it’s connection, memory, and joy. When our youth perform in these centres, something magical happens: generations come together, stories are shared, and music becomes a bridge between past and present.
Your donation helps us bring more performances to seniors who may otherwise never experience live music again.
2. Student Bursary Fund: Music for Every Young Musician
Talent and passion for music should never be limited by financial barriers. Our Bursary Fund ensures that every young musician has the opportunity to participate in our educational programs, regardless of their family’s financial situation.
With your support, we can:
Provide tuition assistance for students in need
Ensure instruments, lessons, and opportunities remain accessible
Empower the next generation of musicians to grow and succeed
When you support a student, you’re not just funding a program—you’re investing in a young person’s confidence, creativity, and future.
3. Canadian Heritage Folk Music Fund
Canada has a rich tradition of fiddle and folk music that deserves to be celebrated and preserved.
Our Canadian Heritage Folk Music Fund allows us to:
Bring fiddle music clinicians from across Canada to mentor our students
Introduce youth to diverse regional fiddle traditions
Purchase and perform music by Canadian composers and arrangers
This program keeps Canadian folk music alive—passing knowledge, artistry, and cultural heritage from one generation to the next.
4. Wild Rosin Fiddle Camp
Every year, our Wild Rosin Fiddle Camp provides students with an unforgettable immersive experience where music and life skills come together.
At camp, students develop:
Team-building and leadership skills
Extra Curricular experiences such as dance, choreography, auxiliary percussion and vocal training
Mass ensemble performance skills
Lifelong friendships, confidence and life skills
Camp is where musicians truly grow—not just as performers, but as people.
Your Gift Makes the Music Possible. Together, we can ensure the gift of music continues to inspire generations to come.
