The Pembroke Community Choir is a 43-year-old Ontario community organization that devotes 99.2% of its spending to programs — putting it in the top tier of peer charities for mission delivery. Despite a dramatic revenue history that includes a year of zero income, the choir has rebounded to $26,394 in annual revenue and operates with healthy reserves.

Our Verdict: A well-established community arts organization with excellent program spending and lean operations, though donors should be aware of its history of revenue volatility including a year of zero income during what appears to have been a pandemic-related hiatus.
