Founded in 1988, Casey House (CH) is the only stand-alone hospital for people with HIV/AIDS in Toronto. Casey House focuses on caring for people with, or at risk for, HIV through integrated health care and reducing HIV stigma. CH programs include three streams of health services: Inpatient Care, Outpatient Care (or a Day Health program), and Community Connections. It also runs research, education, and advocacy programs. The charity does not provide a breakdown of its spending on its programs.

Casey House’s Inpatient Care unit features 14 private rooms and a team of healthcare professionals. In F2022, the charity reported 132 inpatient admissions.

Outpatient Care supports clients Monday to Friday through one-on-one care and group sessions led by an interdisciplinary clinical team. It connects patients with resources intended to improve their quality of life. In F2022, the charity helped 632 clients who visited 17,416 times.

Community Connections includes Casey House’s partnership with Toronto Public Health to provide safer drug use supplies. In F2022, the charity distributed 100,022 safer drug use supplies, with an average of 8,335 a month. CH distributed 40,451 injection kits, 15,917 inhalation kits, and 37,900 crystal meth pipe kits in F2022.

Results and Impact

Casey House was involved in the publication of a third-party evaluation, Health care utilization in medically complex people living with HIV before and after admission to an HIV-specific community facility: a pre–post comparison study. The study reviewed pre-post outcomes of 268 people living with HIV who were admitted to Casey House between 2009 and 2015. The study found that emergency department use declined from 4.6 to 2.5 visits per person-year after discharge from CH, and hospitalization rates declined from 1.4 to 1.1 admissions per person-year.

The charity also reported that 24 overdoses were reversed in F2022.

While Ci highlights these key results, they may not be a complete representation of Casey House’s results and impact. This charity is not yet rated on impact (n/r).

Finances

Charity Intelligence has consolidated the audited financial statements from Casey House and Casey House Foundation.

All donations from the public are received by Casey House Foundation. The Foundation had donations and special events revenue of $4.3m in F2023. Casey House received $11.1m in government funding, representing 68% of total revenues.

Administrative costs are 13% of revenues (less investment income) and fundraising costs are 28% of donations. This results in total overhead spending of 40%. For every $1 donated, 60 cents go to the cause. This is outside Ci’s reasonable range for overhead spending.

Casey House and its Foundation have reserve funds of $14.3m, of which $6.1m is donor-endowed. Excluding donor-endowed funds, CH could cover ten months of annual program costs with current reserve funds.

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