Places to belong

570 registered charities give a Halifax mailing address

There is no count for Schmidtville on its own: the charities are those of all of Halifax. It works out to 1.1 per 1,000 residents, where the typical Nova Scotia town has 1.1 and Canada’s 1.4. Charities are placed by mailing address, which flatters service towns whose post office serves a region and undercounts suburbs and rural municipalities.

Volunteering

37.0%

Between 34.3% and 39.8% of people in Nova Scotia volunteered formally in 2023, 37.0% at the estimate’s middle; that is one figure for the province, which ranges from 25.2% to 40.3% nationally.
