In its fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, it reported $202K in revenue and $161K in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 82% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2020, 2 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $1,200.
Compared with 1,890 poverty-relief institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 17% of peers. Its highest-paid positions fell in the $40,000–79,999 range (2 positions in that band). The charity reported 2 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $129K in 2020 to $202K in 2024.
