Munro announces new arts
fundraising program
How would you like to double
your money? That’s what more
than 200 Ontario arts organizations
will have the opportunity of doing
during the next three years.
Investment In The Arts, a bold new
$10 million program launched
today, will offer one dollar for every
dollar raised by Ontario arts
organizations.
Lily Munro, Minister of Citizen
ship and Culture, said the new
program will help arts organiza
tions to achieve stability and
encourage financial self-sufficien
cy.
“Investments In The Arts will
match one dollar for every fund-
raising base,’’ she said. “And, if
the dollar comes from a new
corporate donor we will provide
it two to one.’’
The program will provide arts
organizations with the opportunity
of regaining a solid financial
standing. The monies raised will
be put into an endowment fund
with the organization having ac
cess to the interest,’’ she said.
“And the matching Ministry mon
ies can be used to retire the
accumulated deficit.’’

Ontario-based arts organiza
tions which have been serving the
community for three years, have
operating budgets in excess of
$75,000, and are currently receiv
ing assistance through the Ontario
Arts Council are eligible. Arts
organizations in northern Ontario
are eligible with an operating
budget of $50,000 and over.
Major arts service organizations
are also included in the program in
recognition of their financial needs
in maintaining a viable and very
important support network.
‘ ‘A healthy cultural sector bene
fits a society both spiritually and
economically,” she said. “Many
people do not realize that the
cultural sector is Canada’s 11th
largest manufacturing industry
and is the sixth largest employer.
As well, culture can open doors to
many international opportunities
such as trade.”
“Investing in the arts makes
good economic sense.”
Precious gifts
Continued from Pg. 4
truth is forgotten, what is left?
One of the gifts I would like to be
able to give you is a sense of
patience. Itissoeasy tobecome
impatient with yourself, those you
love and the world in general. So
often things move so slowly and as
we creep from day to day it seems
little changes, little improves. But
someday when you look back on
your life, you’ll see how things
really seemed tochange so quickly.
May you also have the ability to
step above the day-to-day crisis, to
know that the things that seem too
urgent today will a day from now, a
month from now or a year from now
seem so unimportant. We create so
much stress for ourselves because
we become so wrapped up in our
day-to-day troubles that we make
them too important instead of
realizing that we’ll always muddle
through and tomorrow will be a
better day.
