A portrait of the nonprofit and voluntary sector in rural Ontario

Notes

"In 2003, the Foundation for Rural Living (FRL) formed a partnership with the Canadian Centre for Philanthropy (CCP) to undertake the Rural Charitable Sector Research Initiative. This initiative is designed to aid in the understanding of trends and patterns affecting the rural voluntary sector. This report presents the results from the first phase of the project, which consists of three separate but related pieces of research: 1) a review of the existing literature on the rural voluntary sector; 2) an analysis of contributory behaviours using the 2000 National Survey of Giving, Volunteering and Participating (NSGVP); and 3) an analysis of voluntary organizations registered as charities with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) in 1999" -- Exec. summaryAvailable in print and online
