The Carson Family Charitable Foundation has only submitted 20.0% of expected annual filings between 2009 and 2023, significantly limiting the ability to assess its operations. The Carson Family Charitable Foundation's revenue is both declining (-56.26% per year) and highly volatile (43.8% standard deviation), indicating sustained financial instability. A 77.4% revenue drop in one year may reflect loss of a major donor or grant funding changes. The Carson Family Charitable Foundation has only 1 director(s) on record, concentrating decision-making power. Two standard compliance checks have not yet been performed: cross-referencing international transfers against countries flagged by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) for weak anti-money-laundering controls, and verifying the charity isn't transacting with individuals or organizations under government financial restrictions (sanctions screening). These are gaps in the scoring system's reference data, not red flags about this charity.
Our Verdict: A food bank in Stouffville, ON that experienced a 77% revenue drop and governed by just 2 directors — generally sound, though donors should note the flagged concerns.
