The District of Oak Bay welcomes donations by residents and others through gifts or bequests in cash or kind. Funds can be directed to support a specific program (e.g. Emergency Preparedness) or area (e.g. the Monterey Centre) or for the installation of benches, picnic tables, water fountains or trees. Tax deductible receipts will be issued for donations over $10.  Larger bequests can be directed to the District’s Legacies Fund.  Monies in this fund are invested and the earnings as well as the original bequest help to fund projects in the areas specified by the donors. 

Mayors' Arts Legacy Fund

The Municipality of Oak Bay seeks to increase the liveability and artistic richness of the community by making art accessible in public places and to create a legacy for future generations. Donations to the Mayors' Arts Legacy Fund will go towards public art installations throughout Oak Bay.
