Jazz fans donated over $200,000 to this not-for-profit, registered charity earlier this month. Things are going well, but the station still needs your support. Call 1.800.811.2400 to make a donation between 7am and 10pm... or donate on their website!
There are various incentives based on your donation such as:
- a Jazz Safari (a night on the town with Jaymz Bee for you and a friend -- checking out five Toronto jazz clubs in one night)
- a Wine & Jazz Safari (hitting three wineries and an after party back in Liberty Village)
- a Safari to Cuba in December

The CD includes a who’s who of Toronto jazz musicians and signers, who showcase songs composed by Robin.
