Places to belong

Montréal mailing addresses hold 3,830 registered charities

There is no count for Cartierville on its own: the charities are those of all of Montréal. Per 1,000 residents that makes 2; 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%

Volunteering here is a provincial number: 25.2% of people across Quebec in 2023, likely 24.0% to 26.4%, set in a ten-province range of 25.2% to 40.3%.
