Bialik Hebrew Day School is a charitable organization based in Toronto, Ontario, classified by the CRA under teaching institutions. 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 June 30, 2024, it reported $29.2M in revenue and $29.3M in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 65% from donations, 6% from other charities. In 2024, 30 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $658K.
Compared with 733 education institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 42% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was lower than 92% of that peer group. Its highest-paid position fell in the $300,000–349,999 range. The charity reported 180 permanent full-time positions.
Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 24 names.
