Finances

The Learning Partnership is a small charity, with total donations of $315k in F2018. Fundraising and administrative costs combined are 40% of revenues. For every dollar donated, 60 go to the cause. This is not within Ci’s reasonable range for overhead spending. Funding reserves of $4.3m can cover 10 months of annual program costs.

The Learning Partnership's audited financial statements are only available through a request for information with the Charities Directorate. These audited financial statements do not provide detailed breakdown of revenue sources. Charity Intelligence has used the information The Learning Partnership has self-reported on its T3010 for donations, government funding, and fees for services. 

This charity report is an update that has been sent to The Learning Partnership for review. Changes and edits may be forthcoming.
