  • Exposure may be at a national level or in the international arena
  • Guest entertainment packages at such performances are available, including concert tickets and pre- or post-concert cocktail receptions

Capital Endowment Fund 

  • As with all arts organisations, it is imperative for Arts Global to secure its future success by building substantial capital reserves, the income from which will be applied to the Foundation's operations
  • The Fund will grow by means of cash donations, equities, and income-producing real estate
  • Contributions may be specified for the Arts Global Capital Endowment Fund
  • Alternatively, and to ensure the steady growth of the Fund, we recommend that a portion of all general or otherwise specified donations be applied to the Fund—please see "Use of Funds" below 

Musical Instruments

  • Although musical instruments do not produce income, their value to the Foundation is enormous, both as capital assets and, crucially, for the significant artistic and career-enhancing benefits they bring to the musicians to whom they are loaned
  • Fine instruments may be gifted to Arts Global, either outright or through our Shared-Ownership Scheme
  • Fine instruments may also be loaned to Foundation for specified periods. We are well-positioned to identify appropriate artists to whom to on-loan particular instruments
  • Please contact Heather de Haes to discuss this specialist area of support

Contribution Options

  • A single payment of the donation
  • Donation by quarterly tranches
  • Alternative forms of support are also welcomed: Gifts in Kind, Planned Giving, Transfers of Stock, Mutually beneficial Corporate Initiatives

Tax deductibility

  • Donations are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by the jurisdictions in which they are made, whether the USA, UK or Switzerland
  • Corporations may participate, where appropriate, through their promotional budgets

Intangible Benefits

  • Arts Global Members and their guests have an opportunity to share, through the Foundation and its activities, the unique joy of witnessing over time the development of talented young artists, artistically and professionally. This is the core of Arts Global's activity, and its raison d'être
  • Members have an opportunity to relate directly to the development of an artist or artists of their choice, over a specified period of time
 
Use of Funds
  • As a general principle, unless otherwise agreed with the Donor, Arts Global seeks to divide contributions as follows:
  • 60% to the nominated artist, event or project;
  • 20% to the Foundation's administration
  • 20% to the Capital Endowment Fund
  • Our immediate target is to designate $50,000 per Arts Global artist over three years: $30k directly to the artist (concert fees, expenses, a CD recording, career assistance and further education), $10k to administration and $10k to the Capital Endowment Fund
  • Event and project budgets vary. Please refer to "The Arts Global Initiative" for details
