Oak Hill Academy is a charitable organization based in Copetown, Ontario, classified by the CRA under teaching institutions. 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 July 31, 2024, it reported $2.5M in revenue and $1.4M in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 76% from donations. In 2024, 9 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $126K.
Compared with 1,247 education institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 64% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was lower than 90% of that peer group. Its highest-paid positions fell in the $40,000–79,999 range (9 positions in that band). The charity reported 9 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $325K in 2020 to $2.5M in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 5 names.
In its own words
The charity operates a school during the day with the grades JK/SK to grade 10 where every subject area is taught through a Christian worldview perspective.
