Ensemble folklorique Mackinaw inc. is a charitable organization based in Drummondville, Quebec, classified by the CRA under arts. 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 August 31, 2024, it reported $375K in revenue and $341K in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 5% from donations, 50% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 2 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $3,519.
Compared with 355 arts institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 8% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was higher than 82% of that peer group. Its highest-paid position fell in the $40,000–79,999 range.
