Places to belong

570 registered charities are based in Halifax, by mailing address

There is no count for Eastern Passage on its own: the charities are those of all of Halifax. Per 1,000 residents that makes 1.1; the median is 1.1 for Nova Scotia towns and 1.4 for Canada’s. 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

37.0%

The whole province shares one estimate: 37.0% of people in Nova Scotia volunteered formally in 2023 (between 34.3% and 39.8%), where the ten provinces run from 25.2% to 40.3%.
