Through the efforts of Friends of the Highlands Summer Festival thousands of dollars have been invested in the past years to help the Festival grow. In addition to donations received from members and corporations, the organization hosts a 50/50 draw during each performance and  fund-raising events during the off season. Sincere thanks to all donors and those who purchase our 50/50 tickets. 

A large portion of donations is invested in the infrastructure of the Northern Lights Performing Arts Pavilion, improving the facility for all users. Donations from Friends of the Highlands Summer Festival have been combined with funding from the Performing Arts Society and the High School, with the assistance of the Haliburton County Development Corporation, in the purchase of new lighting equipment for the theatre in 2019. Each year, donations have also helped the Festival cover the cost of professional directors and actors.

We will issue a tax receipt for your generous contribution. Donations are accounted for on a calendar year basis with tax receipts issued in the first two months of the following new year.
To encourage your contribution, we are offering  some great  incentives!
