Maison des Jeunes l'Illusion is a charitable organization based in Girardville, Quebec, classified by the CRA under community resource organizations. 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 March 31, 2024, it reported $28K in revenue and $32K in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 71% from government, 29% from other charities. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2023, 1 other registered charity reported granting it a combined $8,000.
Compared with 163 community-service institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 48% of peers. None of its ten highest-paid positions cleared $40,000. The charity reported 4 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has declined over its filings on record here, from $53K in 2020 to $28K in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 4 names.
