Places to belong

14 registered charities give a Kensington mailing address

That is 6.9 per 1,000 residents, against 0.7 in the typical Prince Edward Island town and 1.4 across Canada. 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

40.3%

Volunteering here is a provincial number: 40.3% of people across Prince Edward Island in 2023, likely 36.8% to 43.9%, set in a ten-province range of 25.2% to 40.3%.
