Dauphin Recreation Services is a charitable organization based in Dauphin, Manitoba, classified by the CRA under public amenities. 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 $5.3M in revenue and $4M in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 23% from donations, 54% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 1 other registered charity reported granting it a combined $8,218.
Compared with 276 public-amenity institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 60% of peers. Its reserves, measured in years of spending on hand, sat in the top decile of the group. Its highest-paid positions fell in the $80,000–119,999 range (4 positions in that band). The charity reported 21 permanent full-time positions.
