Donate to Inside Out
To mark Inside Out’s 35th anniversary, we’re introducing P(L)AY IT FORWARD, a fundraising campaign fueling the future of Inside Out and queer cinema. By donating to P(L)AY IT FORWARD, you’re helping us fund not only our 35th anniversary festival in Toronto, but also celebratory retrospective screenings and events that will unfold throughout the year.
In addition to supporting our 35th year, donations to P(L)AY IT FORWARD will also support our four strategic festival pillars of Industry Development, Programming and Exhibition, Equity and Accessibility and Community Engagement. The future of Inside Out depends on the generosity of our community. Your contributions have kept Inside Out alive and thriving – please help us ensure the next 35 years are just as groundbreaking!

Make a gift in your will
A charitable gift in your last will and testament, known as a bequest, can be in the form of a sum of money, a specific property, a percentage of the residue of your estate, a life insurance policy, an RRSP or a contingency gift. The tax credit resulting from a bequest can provide valuable tax savings to your estate. Making a gift through your will is a meaningful way to celebrate your legacy while making a lasting commitment to Inside Out and the Toronto 2SLGBTQ+ community.
We also recommend that you speak with your financial and legal advisors when considering these types of gifts to ensure that your financial goals are considered, your tax situation is reviewed and your planned gift is tailored to your individual circumstances.
