Orchestre Symphonique de Drummondville is a charitable organization based in Drummondville, Quebec, classified by the CRA under arts. 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 June 30, 2024, it reported $953K in revenue and $1.2M in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 6% from donations, 57% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 4 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $71K.
Compared with 355 arts institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 43% of peers. Its highest-paid position fell in the $80,000–119,999 range. The charity reported 5 permanent full-time positions.
Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 8 names.
