Craque-Bitume is a charitable organization based in Quebec, Quebec, classified by the CRA under educational organizations not elsewhere categorized. 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 $389K in revenue and $419K in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 6% from donations, 69% from government, 8% from other charities. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 3 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $7,500.
Compared with 1,540 education institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 56% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was lower than 100% of that peer group. None of its ten highest-paid positions cleared $40,000. The charity reported 6 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $86K in 2022 to $389K in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 5 names.
