Contributions can also be made through a variety of vehicles, including wills, life insurance policies, gifts of stocks and bonds, and other long-term arrangements.

Matching funds: In recent years, the King’s Theatre Foundation and the King’s Theatre Society have jointly submitted an annual application to the Canadian Cultural Investment Fund for matching grants of up to 65%. This offers tremendous leverage to donors seeking to maximize the impact of their gifts on the long term viability of the theatre.

The Foundation is governed by an independent body that includes Suzan Hebditch (Chair), Tim Moser (Vice Chair), Lawrence Garner (Treasurer), Michele Hall (Archivist), Byron Mersereau, Marcia Field, Jim Fisher, and a representative from the Board of the King’s Theatre Society, who serves a liaison between the two organizations.
