Community Counselling and Resource Centre is a charitable organization based in Peterborough, 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 March 31, 2024, it reported $1.9M in revenue and $1.8M in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 72% from government, 18% from other charities. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 8 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $163K.
Compared with 1,618 poverty-relief institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 15% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was higher than 87% of that peer group. Its highest-paid positions fell in the $120,000–159,999 range (7 positions in that band). The charity reported 25 permanent full-time positions.
It reported gifts to 2 qualified donees totalling $25K in 2024, the largest being $23K to YWCA Peterborough Haliburton. Revenue has declined over its filings on record here, from $2.9M in 2020 to $1.9M in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 10 names.
