Keep The Music Alive

Each year, Giving Tuesday provides an opportunity for you to support a worthy cause of your choice. This year, the occasion is officially marked on the calendar for 3 DEC… however, in the giving spirit, you can make a donation to Jazz Sudbury all year long.

One of the most important initiatives we endorse is the Jazz Sudbury Youth Band. To help us out with this valuable cultural asset, you can hop over to our Canada Helps page and show your support.
