Carrefour des femmes de Saint-Leonard is a 27-year-old women's resource centre serving the Saint-Leonard borough of Montreal, with steady 4.76% annual revenue growth and 80.7% program spending. Its compensation ratio of 72.6% reflects the staffing-intensive nature of women's support services, while near-zero fundraising costs keep overhead lean.
Our Verdict: A stable, well-governed women's centre with growing revenue and strong program delivery. The high compensation ratio is inherent to providing direct support services — counsellors and caseworkers are the program. Thin reserves of 2.9 months are the main vulnerability, but donors can feel confident their money goes to front-line services.
