Places to belong

11 registered charities give a Hay River mailing address

That is 3.3 per 1,000 residents, against 2.7 in the typical the Northwest Territories town and 1.4 across Canada. Charities are placed by mailing address, which flatters service towns whose post office serves a region and undercounts suburbs and rural municipalities.
