La Société Mer et Monde is a charitable organization based in Montreal, Quebec, classified by the CRA under community resource organizations. 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 $753K in revenue and $755K in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 18% from donations, 74% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 4 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $124K.
Compared with 1,147 community-service institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 50% of peers. None of its ten highest-paid positions cleared $40,000. The charity reported 6 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has declined over its filings on record here, from $1.1M in 2020 to $753K in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 8 names.
