The Lubavitch Centre in Winnipeg is a nearly 60-year-old Chabad-Lubavitch Jewish community organization providing religious education, outreach programming, and cultural services to the Jewish community in Manitoba. With an exceptional 95.5% program spending ratio and 10.9% annual revenue growth, this is a highly mission-focused organization that channels virtually all of its resources into direct community programming.

Our Verdict: A remarkably efficient and well-established Jewish community organization with nearly six decades of continuous operation. Its 95.5% program spending ratio is among the highest in its category, and while the 51.1% compensation ratio draws a flag, this reflects the reality that rabbinical educators and program staff are the primary delivery mechanism for Chabad programming. Donors can give with strong confidence in both the organization's mission focus and financial stewardship.
