Canadian Avalanche Rescue Dog Association is a charitable organization based in Enderby, British Columbia, 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 October 31, 2024, it reported $128K in revenue and $144K in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 5% from donations, 78% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 4 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $2,679.
Compared with 1,890 poverty-relief institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 65% of peers.
