Maison Sam X is a charitable organization based in Montréal, Quebec, classified by the CRA under organizations relieving poverty. 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 August 31, 2024, it reported $1M in revenue and $944K in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 90% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2020, 1 other registered charity reported granting it a combined $2.
Compared with 1,618 poverty-relief institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 70% of peers. Its highest-paid position fell in the $40,000–79,999 range. The charity reported 4 permanent full-time positions.
