Casa El Norte Refugee Assistance Program is a charitable organization based in Fort Erie, Ontario, 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 December 31, 2024, it reported $77K in revenue and $270K in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 5% from donations, 58% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 3 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $1,533.
None of its ten highest-paid positions cleared $40,000. The charity reported 3 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has declined over its filings on record here, from $162K in 2020 to $77K in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 10 names.
In its own words
A transitional home that offers shelter for refugees coming into canada.
