Senior Link Society is a charitable organization based in Richmond, British Columbia, classified by the CRA under organizations relieving poverty.

In its fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, it reported $23K in revenue and $14K in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 86% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2023, 2 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $506.
Compared with 162 poverty-relief institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 63% of peers.
