Donations to EJCA 寄付のお願い |
Financial giving is a practical and tangible way for you and your family to show your support for EJCA programs and the operations of our cultural centre. Whether it's a one-time gift, an annual repeating pledge or remembering EJCA in your will, your donation demonstrates your commitment to the mission of the Association. Donations can be earmarked for use according to your direction or added to general revenue. All financial matters are administered by the Board or an awards committee under the Board’s authority, and reported at the Annual General Meeting. Privacy through anonymity can be maintained. Among other things, financial donations are used for: 1. General operation of the Centre The operation of the Cultural Centre is funded by membership fees, rental income, fundraisings and the casino. Donations to EJCA can be used as needed for extra upgrades to equipment, office supplies, library purchases, and so on. 2. Garden Maintenance Money is needed for maintenance of the Wa no Niwa Japanese Garden which greets our members and guests as they enter the Culture Centre. Donations could be used for buying replacements for overgrown shrubs, purchase of tools, buying bark mulch and ornamental stone, replacement of aging timbers, replacing the shingles on the fence. 3. Support for the Japan Today Program The Consulate of Japan has stopped funding this school program, and the shortfall cannot be compensated fully by raising fees to the participating schools. Donations to this program ensures that the program can continue to provide curriculum support to Edmonton schools. 4. Other areas, if you want your donation to be used towards specific activities. One-time donations may be made online (on this page), by cheque or cash in a sealed envelope addressed to the treasurer at the Centre. A receipt will be issued, and a thank you letter will be sent, if desired. Please include instructions for use of your donation. Please note that we will unfortunately not be able to provide you with a formal tax receipt, as we are not a registered charity. | エドモントン日本文化協会では、会の文化活動や運営への援助の一環として寄付をお願いしています。 一度だけの贈与、毎年の定期的な寄付、遺言の中にエドモントン日本文化協会も入れていただくなどがあります。寄付によって会の目的達成への協力の気持ちをあらわしていただけます。寄付金は”何々のために”という形でも、”一般会計”として”という形でも、歓迎いたします。役員会や役員会傘下のコミティ―が責任をもって運用し、年次総会で会計報告をいたします。勿論匿名希望などの個人情報は尊重いたします。 寄付金は次のような活動に使います。 1.協会の一般運営のため
