Join us in our year long campaign, Music Therapy Moves Us!

About the Canadian Music Therapy Fund...

Based in the Music Therapy Centre in Toronto, the Canadian Music Therapy Fund (CMTF) is a registered charity that increases public awareness and access to music therapy. Since 1994, the CMTF has helped thousands of Canadians improve their health, realize goals, and positively change their lives. We provide clinical grants to make music therapy more accessible and scholarships to support music therapy interns. 

Our vision is to create better lives through the transformative power of music therapy. 

Music Therapy Heals.

It's been a tough road for all of us over the last couple of years. We have all fought through adversity and one of the toughest periods in our lives. But now it is time to recover.

Music therapy heals and your donation can help.

Music Therapy Moves Us! 2.0

We know that music moves us emotionally, physically, spiritually and expressively. Working with a certified music therapist, music moves us intentionally and impacts us profoundly. We invite you to join us to help music therapy move more people.

In 2023 we successfully raised $150,000 towards our Music Therapy Moves Us Campaign. After the resounding success of the campaign, we’ve decided to extend it another year with the goal of raising an additional $150,000 towards making music therapy accessible in 2024.

Last year, our focus was on bringing music therapy to children and youth, especially from underserved communities. This year, we’re focusing on bringing music therapy to older adults facing cognitive decline from illnesses such as dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. When these diseases progress, they often impair the individual’s ability to communicate with those around them, including their loved ones. Music therapy is a non-threatening and often non-verbal way to provide these adults with a method of expression that can be adapted to their unique needs. This year, we will be providing national clinical grants to support music therapy programs for these populations as well as continuing to grow our services at the Music Therapy Centre in Toronto.

Thank you for joining our team of supporters!  Stay tuned for more details about our upcoming UnGala!
