Places to belong

Kahnawake mailing addresses hold 10 registered charities

Per 1,000 residents that makes 0.9; the median is 1.4 for Quebec towns and 1.4 for Canada’s. Charities are placed by mailing address, which flatters service towns whose post office serves a region and undercounts suburbs and rural municipalities.

Volunteering

25.2%

For 2023, the provincial survey estimates that 25.2% of people in Quebec volunteered formally (likely 24.0% to 26.4%); among the ten provinces the rate goes from 25.2% to 40.3%.
