La Maison l'Esther is a charitable organization based in Laval, Quebec, classified by the CRA under organizations relieving poverty. 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 $1.7M in revenue and $1.5M in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 92% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 5 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $8,376.
Compared with 1,618 poverty-relief institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 50% of peers. Its highest-paid position fell in the $80,000–119,999 range. The charity reported 16 permanent full-time positions.
