Parya Trillium Foundation is a charitable organization based in Thornhill, 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 $2.1M in revenue and $440K in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 14% from donations, 85% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 5 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $129K.
Compared with 1,618 poverty-relief institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 9% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was lower than 82% of that peer group. Its reserves, measured in years of spending on hand, sat in the top decile of the group. Its highest-paid positions fell in the $40,000–79,999 range (2 positions in that band). The charity reported 4 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $748K in 2020 to $2.1M in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 7 names.
