The Daily, Thursday, November 4, 2004. Charitable donors: "Charitable donors
2003
Canadians continued their tradition of generosity towards charities in 2003. Their donations of $6.5 billion were the highest ever reported and an 11.4% increase from 2002.
The increase in donations was apparent in all provinces and territories with the exception of Newfoundland and Labrador (-5.1%) and Yukon (-3.6%).
The number of donors increased by 1.2% in 2003 to just under 5.6 million. In spite of this, the proportion of taxfilers who claimed charitable donations continued to decline slightly. In 2003, just less than 25% of all Canadian taxfilers claimed charitable donations."
