Thrive Community Support Circle Inc. is a charitable organization based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, classified by the CRA under organizations relieving poverty. 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 $1.5M in revenue and $1.6M in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 55% from government, 40% from other charities. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 19 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $394K.
Compared with 1,618 poverty-relief institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 15% of peers. Its highest-paid positions fell in the $40,000–79,999 range (9 positions in that band). The charity reported 31 permanent full-time positions.
Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 8 names.
