Fondation Olo is a charitable organization based in Montréal, 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 $6.6M in revenue and $4.8M in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 31% from donations, 54% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 18 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $267K.

Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $4.1M in 2020 to $6.6M in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 16 names.
