National Children's Botanical Garden of Canada is a charitable organization based in Ottawa, Ontario, classified by the CRA under public amenities. 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 $4,001 in revenue and $15K in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 99% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 2 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $252.
Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 12 names.
