Which Canadian charities received the most revenue from municipal or regional governments in 2015?

By Mark Blumberg (June 10, 2017)

We recently reviewed the T3010 information for 2015. It covers about 84,442 of the 86,000 registered charities that have so far filed their return and that have been entered into the CRA’s database.

Canadian registered charities are currently required to disclose on the T3010 their revenue from municipal or regional governments. The total revenue from the municipal or regional governments from all the 84,442 registered charities was about $9,059,095,077.00.

Below we have a table of Canadian registered charities who received over $1 million and their revenue from municipal or regional governments as reported for their 2015 fiscal year.

Thank you to Celeste Bonas, an intern at Blumbergs, for helping with this project.

The Sean Blumberg Transparency Project is in memory of my youngest brother Sean Blumberg. Sean was a sweet, kind person, a great brother who helped me on a number of occasions with many tasks including the time consuming and arduous task of reviewing T3010 databases and making them into something useful. As part of the Sean Blumberg Transparency Project, Blumbergs has been releasing information on the Canadian charity sector to provide a better understanding of the size, scope, complexity and challenges of the sector.

Please review my caveats at the end about the reliability and usage of T3010 information.

Limitations and Caveats

There are a number of cautions in dealing with the information from the T3010. You can access on the CRA website directly information on each Canadian registered charity at: http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/charities/

We have placed various statistical information from charities and CRA on our website at: http://www.globalphilanthropy.ca/index.php/blog/category/canadian_charity_statistics.com

All information in this note is provided “as is”.

1) The data in this note is based on the 2015 T3010 Registered Charity Information Return filings. Although all charities are supposed to file their T3010 within 6 months of their fiscal year end, some registered charities file their return late. In some cases they do not file at all and then will lose their charitable status eventually. Depending on the dataset from CRA not every charity may have filed their T3010 or CRA may have received the T3010 but not yet inputted it.

2) Registered charities complete the T3010 and one person signs the form. The T3010 information is not independently verified by CRA when it is posted on the CRA site or placed in the CRA database.

3) Although an important legal document, the T3010 is often completed by volunteers or others who may have little understanding of the nuances of the Income Tax Act, who may have limited language skills, and who may not have easy access to the correct information and are often in a hurry to file the form to avoid deregistration. In the case of larger institutions who would 22

www.canadiancharitylaw.ca generally be those who are hiring people with higher salaries the likelihood is greater than the average that the information will be accurately prepared by the institution and its accountants or finance staff. However, with larger charities when mistakes are made they can sometimes be very large mistakes. It is a good idea especially for larger charities for different parts of the charity to review the T3010 closely such as finance, program staff, fundraising etc. although sometimes this does not happen.

4) The T3010s are filed with CRA and in many cases needs to be coded by hand at CRA which can also introduce mistakes. Only a small number of T3010s have 2D bar code technology which will eliminate most processing errors on CRA’s part. Canadian charities still cannot electronically file the T3010.

5) In some cases those completing the T3010 for a charity are deliberately deceptive. For example, an organizations knows that it has substantial fundraising or political expenses but chooses to put them under charitable etc. Or an organization claims pharmaceuticals that it can purchase for $50,000 are really worth $50 million.

6) Don’t rely on any of this information without checking with the charity and appropriate due diligence as required.

7) The T3010 is a tax form completed according to guidance provided by the CRA in a Guide (T-4033) and also various other CRA guidances and policies. The information inputted may not conform to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and many not match what is in a financial statement. You can obtain copies of financial statements, whether audited or not, on any registered charity by requesting the financial statements from CRA. These financial statements are filed with CRA, but not placed on the CRA website, and they sometimes add further important information.

8) The T3010 asks certain questions. Many important questions are not asked on the T3010. Furthermore and most shockingly CRA is prohibited from releasing any information on the approximately 80,000 – 100,000 non-profits that are not registered charities and may of them file the T1044 Non-Profit Information Return.

9) Relying on the T3010 to make decisions on whether a charity is efficient, effective, or worthwhile to support is prone to failure. We have established a website at www.smartgiving.ca which discusses in detail questions donors may want to ask before donating to charity. Also we have prepared on article on how much should a charity spend on overhead.
