The Société québécoise du syndrome d'Angelman is a Montreal-based health charity that has grown rapidly over two decades, channelling 77% of its spending directly to programs supporting families affected by this rare genetic condition. While its compensation ratio runs high at 72%, this reflects the staffing-intensive nature of delivering specialized support services on a modest budget of under $300K.
Our Verdict: A well-governed small charity with strong program focus, though donors should note that compensation accounts for a significant share of expenditures — typical for staffing-intensive health support organizations operating at this scale.
