The Cobequid Veteran's Memorial Park Society is a private foundation based in Bass River, Nova Scotia, classified by the CRA under public amenities. 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 $9,750 in revenue and $18K in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 21% from donations, 53% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 1 other registered charity reported granting it a combined $204.
Compared with 521 public-amenity institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 10% of peers.
Revenue has declined over its filings on record here, from $21K in 2020 to $9,750 in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 5 names.
