Parents-Secours du Quebec is a 45-year-old child safety organization in Trois-Rivieres that has maintained perfect governance and filing records, but its 50% program spending ratio — with the other half going to compensation and administration — warrants scrutiny from donors. Duplicate-year data in CRA filings means the apparent revenue stability overstates the number of independent data points available.
Our Verdict: A long-tenured organization with flawless governance and decades of service, though donors should note that only half of expenditures go directly to programs. The organization's small scale and staff-dependent model partly explain the cost structure, but program delivery efficiency trails peer norms.
