Au Coeur des Familles Agricoles 2003 is a charitable organization based in Saint-Hyacinthe, Quebec, classified by the CRA under organizations relieving poverty. 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 $1.4M in revenue and $1.5M in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 24% from donations, 69% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 4 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $244.
Compared with 1,618 poverty-relief institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 12% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was lower than 89% of that peer group. Its highest-paid position fell in the $80,000–119,999 range. The charity reported 20 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $767K in 2020 to $1.4M in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 10 names.
