Hospice Toronto is a charitable organization based in Toronto, Ontario, 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 March 31, 2024, it reported $1.8M in revenue and $1.5M in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 65% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 17 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $310K.
Compared with 717 health 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 higher than 86% of that peer group. Its highest-paid position fell in the $160,000–199,999 range. The charity reported 14 permanent full-time positions.
Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 9 names.
In its own words
Hospice toronto works on a care team model with the belief that teams of caregivers from different walks of life can best meet the needs of someone who chooses to die at home. A care team often includes spouses or partners families friends neighbours colleagues doctors nurses personal support workers and volunteers. We can help set up the team provide team members with training and support and supplement the team with skilled volunteers.
