Carrefour populaire de St-Michel inc. is a charitable organization based in Montreal, Quebec, 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 March 31, 2024, it reported $733K in revenue and $674K in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 71% from government, 16% from other charities. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 1 other registered charity reported granting it a combined $115K.
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 31% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was lower than 86% of that peer group. Its highest-paid positions fell in the $40,000–79,999 range (3 positions in that band). The charity reported 16 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $405K in 2020 to $733K in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 7 names.
