How to Support HSSB and What Causes It Acknowledges

The Hannaford Street Silver Band (HSSB) accepts support from both corporate sponsors and individual donors, and it publicly acknowledges Indigenous peoples and related reconciliation commitments. The HSSB website states that the organization "is grateful for the assistance it receives from its corporate and its many individual donors," and it includes a "Support the HSSB" section alongside a "Thank You to Our Sponsors and Donors" acknowledgment. The site also publishes a Land Acknowledgment and states support for the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: Calls to Action and the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.

Ways to Support HSSB

Based on the information published on hssb.ca, support takes two recognized forms:

• Corporate sponsorship — the organization thanks its corporate donors for their assistance.
• Individual donations — the site also thanks "its many individual donors," indicating that personal contributions are welcomed.

The website does not list specific donation amounts, membership tiers, or a dedicated online donation form in the available page content. If you want to give, the practical starting point is the "Support the HSSB" section of the site, which is where the organization directs this information.

Buying Tickets as a Form of Support

Attending concerts is another way to engage with the organization. The site provides a direct purchase path:

• Each upcoming concert listing includes a Buy Tickets link.
• A separate link, Buy Tickets for the Full Season, points to a Ticketmaster-hosted page (am.ticketmaster.com/tolive).

Note that the page evidence only confirms the existence of these ticket links; it does not state prices, fees, or whether any portion of ticket revenue is treated as a donation.

What Causes HSSB Acknowledges

The Land Acknowledgment on the site covers several commitments. In its own words, HSSB:

• Recognizes "the enduring presence of Indigenous peoples in this place."
• Supports the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: Calls to Action.
• Supports the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
• Expresses gratitude to "the past, present and future caretakers of this land."
• States a commitment to "ensuring our organization" — the sentence is cut off in the available excerpt, so the full scope of that commitment is not confirmed here.

This places HSSB's stated position within two widely referenced frameworks: the TRC Calls to Action (Canada's reconciliation recommendations) and UNDRIP (the UN's declaration on Indigenous rights).

Quick Reference

What the Page Does Not Specify

To avoid guessing: the available content does not state donation amounts, tax receipt details, membership benefits, sponsorship tiers, or a contact person for giving. For those specifics, check the "Support the HSSB" section directly or contact the organization through details listed on its site.
