About Victoria Symphony Society

Overview

The Victoria Symphony Society (VSS) enriches lives through sharing the experience of extraordinary music. It provides concerts, educates people through its outreach programs, and contributes to the artistic and cultural scenes of different communities on Vancouver Island. In the 2019/2020 fiscal year, despite canceling their season in the last quarter, they held over 55 concerts and events with over 93,000 in attendance. With the worldwide pandemic, VSS was required by provincial health authorities to cancel its F2019/20 season in March 2020. It will not be able to perform live again until there is a vaccine or treatment available for Covid 19 as it is in Phase 4 of the BC reopening plan. The organization has decided to pivot to a virtual program, which will begin in September 2020.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about getting started

WellFunded eliminates the inefficiencies, inequities and ineffectiveness of traditional fundraising by centralizing and standardizing the process. Instead of spending time on endless grant applications, you create a single, detailed profile that philanthropists and foundations can easily discover and fund. Our other tools like our centralized due diligence tool and "2 click grants" (coming soon) build off of this core concept: that we can make things radically better by centralizing them on one common platform.

Philanthropists can browse charity profiles, see your funding needs, and express interest directly—saving you countless hours. We are soon rolling out a "two click granting" tool where donors can set their granting preferences and if your charity matches their preferences, you will automatically be notified in your dashboard, and can send your portrait onward right through to their WellFunded dashboard. Sort of like applying to a job through LinkedIn Easy Apply.

WellFunded charges philanthropists presently. For charities, WellFunded offers a free tier, with plans for affordable paid options that provide enhanced visibility and engagement tools. However, we will always have a free tier. We will introduce pricing once enough active donors use the platform to influence giving.

Instead of relying on cold proposals or personal networks, WellFunded helps you get in front of philanthropists actively looking to give in your area of impact. With advanced search tools and standardized due diligence, your work speaks for itself—helping you build trust and attract new donors.

Charity profiles include leadership information, financial data, and clear funding needs. Philanthropists can also see impact reports and follow the giving activity of other donors, creating a more open and transparent ecosystem.

Yes. WellFunded prioritizes data security and does not sell or share your private information outside the platform.
