Vivre Grand is a charitable organization based in Charlesbourg, Quebec, classified by the CRA under core health care. 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 $1M in revenue and $887K in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 12% from donations, 53% from government, 25% from other charities. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 9 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $332K.
Compared with 717 health institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 73% of peers. Its highest-paid position fell in the $80,000–119,999 range. The charity reported 9 permanent full-time positions.
