Providing for tomorrow
The INNERchamber Fund
at the Stratford and Perth County Community Foundation
Created in 2026, Mr. Roy Norton, a dedicated patron and supporter of INNERchamber, very generously provided seed funding to establish the INNERchamber Fund at the Stratford and Perth County Community Foundation.
Gifts to this fund, whether through direct donations, gifts of securities or a gift from your estate will help ensure the long term viability of INNERchamber. Gifts to the Fund are invested and preserved, allowing the endowment to grow and provide meaningful long-term support. A portion of the investment income each year from this fund will provide annual support to INNERchamber to help us continue to provide the excellent programming our audiences have come to expect and enjoy.
"The INNERchamber Fund at the Stratford and Perth County Community Foundation will provide guaranteed annual support - in perpetuity - to this immensely talented creative ensemble. As the fund grows through contributions and legacy gifts, it will help ensure that INNERchamber can inspire our community for generations to come. If you share that goal, please consider contributing.” - Roy Norton
“Truly great programming in the Arts is dependent on stable funding. While we at INNERchamber pride ourselves on dreaming up programs that bring delight and joy to our audiences, it is important to know that we have funding to back up our plans. The creation of the new INNERchamber Fund at the Stratford and Perth County Community Foundation is a development that I could not have envisioned taking place even a few years ago. Community visionary Roy Norton has helped us immensely by initiating this fund so that we can now provide donors another way to give to INNERchamber. A gift to the fund looks beyond meeting our annual fundraising needs (which of course remain vitally important) and helps to secure our future with a dependable, annual income sources that we can continue to craft enjoyable programming providing great music in the company of friends” - Andrew Chung
