BC Adaptive Snowsports Association is a charitable organization based in Vancouver, British Columbia, classified by the CRA under public amenities. 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 April 30, 2024, it reported $785K in revenue and $900K in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 62% from government, 14% from other charities. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 8 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $80K.
Compared with 686 public-amenity institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 49% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was higher than 95% of that peer group. Its highest-paid position fell in the $120,000–159,999 range. The charity reported 1 permanent full-time position.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $520K in 2020 to $785K in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 7 names.
