Gignoo Transition House channels 99.3% of its $1.3 million budget directly into programs serving women and families fleeing violence in Fredericton — one of the highest program spending ratios we see across Canadian charities. With 29 years of continuous operation, zero fundraising costs, and a recent revenue surge to $1.65 million, this Indigenous-led shelter is growing rapidly to meet demand.

Our Verdict: An exceptionally efficient crisis shelter with near-total program spending and a 29-year track record — donors supporting women's safety in New Brunswick will find one of the strongest stewards of charitable funds in the province.
