Land of Maquinna Cultural Society is a charitable organization based in Tsaxana Gold River, British Columbia, classified by the CRA under public amenities. 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 December 31, 2023, it reported $206K in revenue and $272K in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 85% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 2 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $30K.
Compared with 680 public-amenity institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 91% of peers.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $512 in 2020 to $206K in 2023. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 8 names.
