Charities in Amherst, NS
62 registered charities give Amherst, NS as their address. That is where the charity is registered, not necessarily where it works — a national charity registered in Toronto may spend most of its money elsewhere.
Note:
Listed largest first by reported revenue. That is a size ordering, not a ranking — the biggest charity here is not the best one, and revenue says nothing about how well any of them works.
