Pender Islands Health CARE Society is a charitable organization based in Pender Island, British Columbia, classified by the CRA under core health care. 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 $1.3M in revenue and $1.1M in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 10% from donations, 65% from government, 6% from other charities. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 8 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $230K.
Compared with 717 health institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 27% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was lower than 100% of that peer group. Its reserves, measured in years of spending on hand, sat in the top decile of the group.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $523K in 2020 to $1.3M in 2024.
