La Traversée (Rive-Sud) is a charitable organization based in Saint-Lambert, Quebec, classified by the CRA under organizations relieving poverty.

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 21% from donations, 72% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 5 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $48K.
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 31% of peers. Its reserves, measured in years of spending on hand, sat in the top decile of the group. Its highest-paid position fell in the $120,000–159,999 range. The charity reported 11 permanent full-time positions.
