Places to belong

570 registered charities give a Halifax mailing address

There is no count for Lower Sackville 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%

Statistics Canada puts formal volunteering in Nova Scotia at 37.0% in 2023, somewhere between 34.3% and 39.8%, for every town in the province alike; provinces range from 25.2% to 40.3%.
