Hospice Society of North Kootenay Lake is a charitable organization based in Kaslo, British Columbia, classified by the CRA under core health care. 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 December 31, 2024, it reported $28K in revenue and $35K in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 21% from donations, 70% from government, 5% from other charities. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 3 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $2,480.
Compared with 213 health institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 42% of peers.
Revenue has declined over its filings on record here, from $52K in 2020 to $28K in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 6 names.

Our society offers compassionate care to persons with terminal illness or at the end of life and grief support to the bereaved. We provide both individual and group supports. We hold public informations sessions on advanced care planning death dying and grieving. We have a library of books and audio-visual resources. Trained volunteers offer empathetic listening and conversation at home hospital or long-term care facilities offer respite time for caregivers and simply spend time with clients to support them in whatever way they wish
