Ensemble for the Respect of Diversity is a charitable organization based in Montreal, Quebec, classified by the CRA under foundations. 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 June 30, 2024, it reported $968K in revenue and $1.1M in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 24% from donations, 51% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 7 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $35K.
Compared with 54 grantmaking institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 26% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was lower than 87% of that peer group. Its highest-paid position fell in the $80,000–119,999 range. The charity reported 24 permanent full-time positions.
Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 11 names.
