Connect Society is a charitable organization based in Edmonton, Alberta, classified by the CRA under core health care. 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 $5.2M in revenue and $5.2M in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 94% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 4 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $26K.
Compared with 717 health institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 77% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was higher than 85% of that peer group. Its highest-paid positions fell in the $80,000–119,999 range (3 positions in that band). The charity reported 42 permanent full-time positions.
