$760,635 |
Population figures, and Gross National (GN) Income per Person figures are for the year 2006, and were taken from the book of World Development Indicators (2008).
Any Excess of Donations over Bedkits Funded is carried forward to future
years to buy bedkits. In 2008, SCAW received
a large bequest that, as is customary, will be used in future years
to fund bedkits.
Funding was increased from CDN $30.00 to $35.00 per bedkit, effective with distributions funded after June 1, 2008.
Operating expenses of $105,598 for the year ended February 28, 2009 ($98,857
for 2008) were covered by the Sleeping Children
Around The World Legacy Account set
up by Murray Dryden. Our financial
structure ensures that 100% of bedkit donations are used only to
buy bedkits.
All Canadian registered charities are required to submit each year an Annual Information Return to the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency (CCRA).
- SCAW 's Annual Information Returns are available on the CCRA web-site (Click on the link to go to the site.)
- Once on this site, click on the "Return" icon at the right. This takes

Around The World's Annual Information Returns are available.
