Dear Members & Friends,
Please note that as of November 23, 2019, the Jamaica Association of Montreal Foundation has had its charitable status revoked. As of that date, the Foundation was not able to provide charitable receipts.
If you gave a donation to the Foundation after November 23, 2019 you will not receive a receipt for tax purposes. If you were expecting one, we suggest you get in touch directly with the Foundation.
The Jamaica Association of Montreal continues to count on your support for our events that promote the strength and future of the Jamaican community in Montreal. While we are a not-for-profit, we do not have charitable status, and therefore cannot ourselves issues tax receipts for donations. We are diligently looking at options that will encourage and assist our fund-raising efforts, and will keep you posted!!
