Places to belong

Low mailing addresses hold 3 registered charities

Per 1,000 residents that makes 2.8; the median is 1.4 for Quebec 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

25.2%

25.2% of people in Quebec did formal volunteering in 2023, a province-wide estimate between 24.0% and 26.4%; across the ten provinces the rate runs from 25.2% to 40.3%.
