Places to belong

1,638 registered charities give a Edmonton mailing address

There is no count for Kiniski Gardens on its own: the charities are those of all of Edmonton. It works out to 1.3 per 1,000 residents, where the typical Alberta town has 1.3 and Canada’s 1.4. The CRA files each charity under its mailing address, so a service town collects its region’s charities and a suburb or rural municipality few.
