883 registered charities are based in Québec, by mailing address
There is no count for Lairet on its own: the charities are those of all of Québec. It works out to 1.5 per 1,000 residents, where the typical Quebec town has 1.4 and Canada’s 1.4. 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.
25.2%
The 2023 survey gives Quebec one volunteering rate for all its towns, 25.2% (between 24.0% and 26.4%), while provinces run from 25.2% at the low end to 40.3%.
