Donnes-Toi Une Chance is a charitable organization based in Gatineau, Quebec, 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 $1.4M in revenue and $1.2M in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 98% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 3 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $3,833.
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 77% of peers. Its highest-paid position fell in the $120,000–159,999 range. The charity reported 14 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $479K in 2020 to $1.4M in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 6 names.
