HOW YOUR DONATION WILL HELP: There are as many ways your donation can help support LIFT and independent filmmaking in Canada as there are films out there to be made. In response to our donors requests to help with specific areas we've outlined four categories you can choose to make a simple donation to: - LIFT Capital Fund (towards capital purchases) - LIFT Operating Endowment (this permanently held trust with the Ontario Arts Foundation ensures long-term operational stability) - LIFT Commissioning Fund (this fund helps LIFT commission new work by emerging and established Canadian Filmmakers). - Community and Youth Projects (Support our hands-on filmmaking programs for youth and community members). If you wish to make a donation to establish an award for filmmakers, specifically support another part of the organization, or donate equipment please contact the LIFT office directly at 416.588.6444.
