Places to belong

883 registered charities are based in Québec, by mailing address

There is no count for Jésuites on its own: the charities are those of all of Québec. That is 1.5 per 1,000 residents, against 1.4 in the typical Quebec 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.

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%.
