Aidaen Mae Fund is a private foundation based in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, classified by the CRA under community resource organizations. It appears on the charity register the way hospitals, universities, and other publicly funded bodies do — to issue tax receipts — rather than as a donation-driven charity in the usual sense. In its fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, it reported $233K in revenue and $194K in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 37% from donations, 53% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 7 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $114K.
Compared with 1,147 community-service institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 93% of peers. None of its ten highest-paid positions cleared $40,000. The charity reported 2 permanent full-time positions.
