Saskatchewan is the National Leader in Volunteerism

According the the recently released report from Stats Canada, the Canadian Survey of Giving, Volunteering and Participating 2010, states that over 13.3 million Canadians volunteer. Leading the way, Saskatchewan residents, aged 15 and over, volunteer at a rate of 58% - the highest in our country!  THANK YOU!

Many become involved in volunteering because people they know are doing it or were asked directly to get involved. These volunteers give of their time because they want to support their community. Many volunteers often become in group projects, either with friends, family or co-workers. The most common areas volunteers are donating their time are sports and recreation, religion and social services.

Top volunteers are the people on whom charitable and non-profit organizations rely most heavily on.
