Solidarite Mercier-Est is a charitable organization based in Montréal, Quebec, classified by the CRA under organizations relieving poverty.

In its fiscal year ending March 31, 2024, it reported $783K in revenue and $811K in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 60% from government, 38% from other charities. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 2 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $300K.
Compared with 1,890 poverty-relief institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 53% of peers. Its highest-paid position fell in the $80,000–119,999 range.
