Zoo de Granby — one of Quebec's most popular zoological attractions — earns an A+ trust grade backed by 59 years of continuous CRA registration, a $35.2 million operation, and 13.2 months of reserves that sit comfortably within peer norms for science and research organizations. While compensation costs are elevated at $15.7 million, this reflects the specialized staffing required to operate a major accredited zoo with year-round animal care.
Our Verdict: A well-established and financially sound organization with nearly six decades of operational continuity. Program spending at 76.3% is solid for a zoo of this scale, and reserves are healthy — donors can give with confidence that this is a professionally managed institution.
