BNOT Jerusalem Seminary is a charitable organization based in Montréal, Quebec, 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 $668K in revenue and $930K in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 60% from donations, 37% from other charities. In 2024, 4 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $46K.
Compared with 1,540 education institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 76% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was lower than 77% of that peer group.
It reported gifts to 6 qualified donees totalling $886K in 2024, the largest being $701K to Congregation Belz. Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $353K in 2020 to $668K in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 4 names.
