Riverdale Place Workshop Inc. is a charitable organization based in Arborg, Manitoba, 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 March 31, 2024, it reported $427K in revenue and $508K in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
