Places to belong

Fortune mailing addresses hold 4 registered charities

It works out to 3.2 per 1,000 residents, where the typical Newfoundland and Labrador town has 1.4 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.

Volunteering

34.8%

The 2023 survey gives Newfoundland and Labrador one volunteering rate for all its towns, 34.8% (between 31.7% and 38.0%), while provinces run from 25.2% at the low end to 40.3%.
