Aux Quatre Vents is a Levis, Quebec mutual-aid group for people living with psychological or psychiatric difficulties that has quietly operated for 34 years with perfect governance scores and nearly zero compliance risk. Every dollar of its $466K in expenditures is classified as program spending, with 73.6% of revenue going to compensation — a ratio that makes sense for a hands-on mental health support organization where trained staff are the program. Healthy reserves at 7.8 months provide a solid cushion above the peer median.
Our Verdict: A long-established, well-governed mutual-aid organization serving a vulnerable population in Quebec. Financial management is sound, reserves are healthy, and revenue is growing steadily. Donors can give with confidence that their money directly supports front-line mental health and psychosocial support services.
