Places to belong

1,638 registered charities are based in Edmonton, by mailing address

Charities are placed by mailing address, which flatters service towns whose post office serves a region and undercounts suburbs and rural municipalities.

Volunteering

37.1%

The whole province shares one estimate: 37.1% of people in Alberta volunteered formally in 2023 (between 35.1% and 39.2%), where the ten provinces run from 25.2% to 40.3%.
