Brescia University College is a charitable organization based in London, 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 April 30, 2024, it reported $27.9M in revenue and $35.3M in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 5% from donations, 31% from government. In 2023, 6 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $71K.
Compared with 733 education institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 10% of peers. Its highest-paid positions fell in the $350,000 and over range (3 positions in that band). The charity reported 132 permanent full-time positions.
Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 12 names.
