The Toronto Local Charity Foundation is a public foundation based in Markham, Ontario, classified by the CRA under foundations. 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 June 30, 2024, it reported $19K in revenue and $69K in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 28% from donations, 72% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 2 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $33K.
Compared with 38 grantmaking institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 34% of peers.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $2,685 in 2020 to $19K in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 1 name.
