Volunteer hours in arts, culture, recreation and sport organizations represent 64% of total work in these organizations, much higher than the overall average of 20% for the non-profit sector.
Other types of organizations that rely more heavily on volunteers than on paid labour include those involved in law, advocacy and politics, the environment, religion, as well as international development, relief and human rights.
The replacement cost value of volunteer work in arts, culture, recreation and sport organizations is estimated at $3.6 billion.
P.S. We've moved the Dooryard mainstage to behind Home Hardware, where the pavement won't have to be disturbed by arts and culture. It's the best we could do.
