Indwell Community Homes

Indwell Community Homes is a charitable organization based in Hamilton, Ontario, classified by the CRA under organizations relieving poverty.

In its fiscal year ending March 31, 2024, it reported $56.3M in revenue and $31.4M in expenditures.

Its funding that year was roughly 6% from donations, 60% from government, 14% from other charities. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 118 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $9.1M.

Compared with 427 poverty-relief institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 29% 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 (3 positions in that band).
