Places to belong

Regina mailing addresses hold 505 registered charities

There is no count for Downtown on its own: the charities are those of all of Regina. That is 1.9 per 1,000 residents, against 2 in the typical Saskatchewan 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

36.6%

Between 33.9% and 39.5% of people in Saskatchewan volunteered formally in 2023, 36.6% at the estimate’s middle; that is one figure for the province, which ranges from 25.2% to 40.3% nationally.
