The Montessori School of Cambridge is a charitable organization based in Cambridge, Ontario, classified by the CRA under teaching institutions. 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 December 31, 2024, it reported $1.7M in revenue and $1.5M in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 62% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2023, 2 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $21K.
Compared with 1,247 education institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 100% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was higher than 99% of that peer group. Its highest-paid positions fell in the $40,000–79,999 range (10 positions in that band). The charity reported 23 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $914K in 2020 to $1.7M in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 11 names.
