W.i.n.g.s. Fellowship Ministries is a charitable organization based in New Westminster, British Columbia, classified by the CRA under community resource organizations. 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 $2.6M in revenue and $2.6M in expenditures.

Its reserves, measured in years of spending on hand, sat in the top decile of the group. Its highest-paid position fell in the $160,000–199,999 range. The charity reported 16 permanent full-time positions.
Revenue has grown substantially over its filings on record here, from $1.7M in 2020 to $2.6M in 2024. Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 9 names.
