In its fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, it reported $440K in revenue and $351K in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 65% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2023, 1 other registered charity reported granting it a combined $150.
Compared with 1,981 poverty-relief institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 16% of peers.
