Annual spending requirement (disbursement quota)
The disbursement quota is the minimum amount a registered charity is required to spend each year on its own charitable activities or on qualifying disbursements.
You can calculate this amount based on the value of a charity's property not used for charitable activities or administration.
The information on your Form T3010 will be used to determine whether your charity has met its disbursement quota.
