Self Help and Recreation - Education P.A. operates a staffing-intensive poverty relief program in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, channeling 90.9% of its $1.45 million in expenditures directly to programs — above the 82.0% peer median for housing and poverty organizations. With 41 years of continuous registration and a 10-member board, the organization demonstrates the institutional maturity expected of an A+ rated charity. Compensation at 74% of revenue is the key metric to understand: in a hands-on social services operation, staff wages largely ARE the program.
Our Verdict: A long-established Prince Albert social services organization with strong program delivery and steady growth — the high compensation ratio reflects the staffing-intensive nature of direct poverty relief work rather than a governance concern.
