Les correspondances d'eastman is a charitable organization based in Eastman, 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 September 30, 2024, it reported $156K in revenue and $192K in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 55% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 1 other registered charity reported granting it a combined $15.
Compared with 1,540 education institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 40% of peers. Its highest-paid position fell in the $40,000–79,999 range. The charity reported 2 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has declined over its filings on record here, from $233K in 2020 to $156K in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 7 names.
