National Capital Able Sail Association is a charitable organization based in Ottawa, Ontario, 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 December 31, 2024, it reported $8,853 in revenue and $13K in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 11% from donations, 74% from government, 15% from other charities. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 2 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $1,677.
Compared with 162 poverty-relief institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 31% of peers.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $624 in 2020 to $8,853 in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 5 names.
