GuelphMercury - Sustaining the future of philanthropy through social...: Sustaining the future of philanthropy through social enterprise
There are approximately 80,000 registered charitable organizations in Canada, and more than 40 per cent of them are operated entirely by volunteers.
Charities employ nearly two million Canadians, and in 2006, Canadians donated a total of $8.5 billion to charities. I found it staggering to learn that this $8.5 billion in donations, plus government funding, add up to nearly 70 per cent of charitable organization budgets.
