The Stewiacke Valley Historical Society is a charitable organization based in Upper Stewiacke, 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 October 31, 2024, it reported $12K in revenue and $14K in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 16% from donations, 65% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 1 other registered charity reported granting it a combined $93.
Compared with 521 public-amenity institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 1% of peers. Its fundraising cost per donated dollar was lower than 83% of that peer group.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $3,401 in 2020 to $12K in 2024.
