Le Cirque des Étoiles Memphrémagog is a charitable organization based in Magog, Quebec, classified by the CRA under education in the arts. 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, 2022, it reported $43K in revenue and $58K in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 63% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2020, 1 other registered charity reported granting it a combined $500.
Compared with 839 education institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 54% of peers. None of its ten highest-paid positions cleared $40,000. The charity reported 1 permanent full-time position.
