Steinitz Bach Players celebrating Golden 50th at Bachfest in St John’s Smith Square on 6 November 2018
MATCH FUND
We have just £1,175 left to raise in order to meet our £10,000 target ( that can be £935 donations + £233.75 Gift Aid).
If you are not a UK tax payer or prefer not to make a Gift Aid Declaration you can still donate.
Thank you so much to all the donors who have supported the Match Fund so far.
London Bach Society is funded by private donations, grants from charitable trusts and the general income, including ticket sales ,it can generate from its public activities (concerts, recitals, workshops, competitions, organ and music hire). Since 1968 LBS has supported its own professional orchestra that attracts the very best players to our platform.
Revenue from ticket sales does not cover the costs of the events we present at Bachfest or at any other time of the year, so we rely on the generosity of our donors, Bach Friends and our audience supporters to help us make things happen.
Thanks to the generosity of donors, trusts and Bach Friends we have raised £60,000 of the £70,000 target in support of the London Bach Society’s annual programme of work. To reach the target and propel us into our new era of work, we are busy raising the final £10,000. The Match Fund was launched with a donation £5,000, which has been donated already, a further £3,800 has been raised in matching funds from other donors bringing the total to £8,800.
We have just £1,200 to go and we’ll meet our target;
- if £960 in Gift Aid donations is received, LBS (registered charity number 1082788) can reclaim a further £250 at no extra cost to yourself and the target is met.
- A Gift Aid declaration is available to download (scroll down).
- If you prefer not to make a Gift Aid donation or are not a UK taxpayer you can still donate.
Will you join in and help us? Small gifts or larger ones…they all count; they are all valued.
