Dear John,

Today, the Fraser Institute published our annual study: Generosity in Canada: The 2023 Generosity Index.

The study finds that the number of Canadians donating to charity — as a percentage of all tax filers — is at the lowest point in 20 years.

The total amount donated to charity by Canadian tax filers has also fallen from 0.58% in 2001 to 0.55% in 2021.

Manitoba had both the highest number of donors, and donated the highest percentage of its income!

Find out where the rest of the provinces are placed here, and be sure to share the news on social media!

Sincerely,

Niels Veldhuis
President
The Fraser Institute
