Auberge Madeleine is a charitable organization based in Montreal, 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 March 31, 2024, it reported $2.9M in revenue and $2.3M in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 18% from donations, 58% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 39 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $538K.
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 92% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was lower than 83% of that peer group. Its highest-paid position fell in the $80,000–119,999 range. The charity reported 21 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $1.6M in 2020 to $2.9M in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 8 names.
