Sponsor an organ pipe
As part of our fundraising appeal for the restoration of the War Memorial Grand Organ, we are offering donors to sponsor parts of the organ, and have their donation noted on a pipe, console or set of pipes. Donations of $10,000 or more will be recorded on a plaque on the narthex stair wall. ALL DONATIONS ARE TAX DEDUCTIBLE.
Click 'Sponsor now' and choose the 'sponsor a pipe' section of the donation categories. Insert the amount of your donation and you will be allocated the next available pipe in that category of pipes. A certificate showing the relevant pipe will be sent to you in recognition of your sponsorship.
