We depend upon our Friends and Sponsors to help us fulfill our mission--to produce English-language premières of Québécois plays for Montreal's public and students--and to fulfill our passionate commitment to Montreal's actors and designers, to ensure that they are properly rewarded for the enrichment they bring to our lives.

Our Canadian charity registration number is: 801959826RR0001. This means that we can issue you with a charitable donation tax receipt to reduce your tax burden!

We invite you to:

FRIENDS'  CIRCLES  BENEFITS:

"Philanthropy ...must connect. Philanthropy involves both dreams and plans. ...By supporting causes outside your daily life, you not only do good for others, but you benefit by your involvement in the broader world in which we live. ...The act of giving is in fact a gift to oneself. ...Philanthropy is fun. It is joyful. It is fulfilling."--James Wolfensohn

"Giving is not just giving. It is also getting: getting satisfaction, fulfillment, connection, meaning, purpose, and dozens of other high-sounding nouns that will no longer be abstractions once you have the experience of making a thoughtful, well-intentioned, and significant gift of money to a cause you heartily believe in."--Charles Bronfman

We also believe that "giving is in fact a gift to oneself" and that "giving... is also getting". So we encourage you to give generously to Talisman Theatre and help support Montreal's English-language theatre.

Private donations can be made by credit card or cheque, simply click on Donate. Our Director of Development will be more than happy to meet with you to discuss major gifts and planned giving.
