For more than 160 years, the Waterloo Concert Band has shared live music with the community through public concerts, outdoor summer programs, civic events, commemorative functions and outreach to area retirement communities. While we are generously supported by the City of Waterloo and by occasional special project grants, the WCB also relies on community support so we can continue presenting quality music free of charge.

Your contributions, whether large or small, help us expand our repertoire, keep our instruments in good repair, purchase additional equipment, print concert programs, and defray the costs of renting performance or rehearsal space.

How You can Support the Band

When you attend one of our two major indoor concerts in December or May, leave the amount of your choice in our contribution jar. To receive receipts for amounts of $25 or more, just fill in your name and contact details on the list beside the jar.

Come to one of our summer concerts in Waterloo Park and other outdoor locations in the region and toss in your loose change when we pass the donation buckets.

As a charitable organization, we will issue tax receipts for donations over twenty-five dollars. You can mail a donation to: Waterloo Concert Band, 5-420 Erb Street West, Suite 351, Waterloo, ON, N2L 6K6

You can make a secure online donation to the band right now through CanadaHelps.org and receive a tax receipt immediately. It’s quick, easy, and safe.
