Fort Erie Community Preschool is a charitable organization based in Fort Erie, Ontario, classified by the CRA under teaching institutions. 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 $1.2M in revenue and $719K in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 74% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 1 other registered charity reported granting it a combined $96.
Compared with 1,247 education institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 77% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was higher than 96% of that peer group. Its highest-paid position fell in the $80,000–119,999 range. The charity reported 9 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $138K in 2020 to $1.2M in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 5 names.
