Hospice Vaughan is a charitable organization based in Woodbridge, 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 $3.9M in revenue and $4.4M in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 48% from donations, 51% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 21 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $147K.
Compared with 717 health institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 7% of peers. Its reserves, measured in years of spending on hand, sat in the top decile of the group. Its highest-paid positions fell in the $120,000–159,999 range (2 positions in that band). The charity reported 29 permanent full-time positions.
Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 12 names.
