Significance
• Charitable giving is an essential part of civil society because it allows Canadians to support institutions and causes that they believe in, which ultimately enhance the well-being of Canada as a whole.

Core Indicator
• The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) personal income tax data indicates how many people reported a charitable donation amount on Line 340 of the personal tax income form.
• In 2010, 23.4 % of Canadian tax filers reported making charitable donations on their personal income tax form, a rate 2.3 percentage points lower than that in 1997 (see following chart).
