Donate to ReFrame
SUPPORT OUR WORK
Each January since 2005, ReFrame has captivated Nogojiwangong / Peterborough with award-winning films and works of art from around the world, fostering meaningful connections between filmmakers, artists, community partners and neighbours on topics of social justice, human rights, and environmental responsibility. Since 2021, we’ve been sharing these transformative works online from coast-to-coast-to-coast. Offering both an in-person festival and a virtual festival is incredibly costly, but we believe it’s vital for both accessibility and connection.
Preparations are well underway for the next instalment of this celebrated arts and culture event, and we could use your help. As arts funding becomes increasingly precarious, your gift is more essential than ever for our survival.
If you’re able, please consider making a tax-deductible donation today to help us bring the year’s best in documentary to film-lovers in Nogojiwanong, and across the nation.
Charitable tax receipts available for any donation over $20
ONE-TIME & MONTHLY GIFTS
One-time donations are a quick and easy way to directly support festival programs.
Monthly gifts are budget-friendly, and provide much-needed, predictable support that will sustain ReFrame over the long term.
GIFTS OF SECURITIES
Why donate securities to ReFrame?
Higher tax savings for you.
- A donation of securities or mutual fund shares is the most efficient way to give charitably since the capital gains tax does not apply.
Give more. Receive more.
- Your security or mutual fund donation means a larger donation for ReFrame. It also means a larger charitable tax receipt for you.
HOW YOUR DONATION SUPPORTS REFRAME FILM FESTIVAL
KEEPING THE FESTIVAL ACCESSIBLE
Your generosity helps keep ReFrame accessible to those for whom cost can be a barrier, including supporting our universal Pay-What-You-Can option for every single screening, and hundreds of free Community Access Passes distributed to equity-deserving people through our partner organizations each year. Donations also bolster improved accessibility in digital communications, the creation of subtitles and caption files for films, and support resources such as sensory kits and active listeners at the festival. Your gift today will help ensure that ReFrame can be enjoyed by everyone in our community.
SUPPORTING ARTISTS AND ARTS WORKERS
ReFrame is committed to supporting diverse filmmakers, paying fair artist fees and paying all of our staff a living wage. Your help ensures that we continue to support our small staff team as well as dozens of artists and filmmakers with dignity and security.
SECURING REFRAME’S FUTURE
At a time when arts funding is dramatically decreasing across the board, your donations quite literally keep ReFrame alive. Running a hybrid festival – both online and in person – is much like delivering two separate festivals without an increase in human or financial resources. While this delivery is costly, it is also vital for accessibility and connectivity. Your gift helps us to continue bringing ReFrame to our community – both here in Nogojiwanong, and from coast-to-coast-to-coast – fostering meaningful connections and sparking positive change.
