Places to belong

One registered charity gives a Musquash mailing address

That is 0.7 per 1,000 residents, against 1.8 in the typical New Brunswick town and 1.4 across Canada. 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.

Volunteering

34.4%

Between 31.6% and 37.2% of people in New Brunswick volunteered formally in 2023, 34.4% at the estimate’s middle; that is one figure for the province, which ranges from 25.2% to 40.3% nationally.
