Nature-Action Québec Inc. is a charitable organization based in Beloeil, 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 December 31, 2024, it reported $18.5M in revenue and $16.1M in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 71% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 9 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $6.5M.
Compared with 115 community-service institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 14% of peers. Its reserves, measured in years of spending on hand, sat in the top decile of the group. Its highest-paid position fell in the $160,000–199,999 range. The charity reported 204 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $6.4M in 2020 to $18.5M in 2024.
