I came across this information in my reading and I thought it was interesting
because of what is tells us about how important it is to record our volunteer hours.

"Here’s to Volunteers! Statistics Canada reports that in 2010 nearly 23 million Canadians (84% of the over-15 crowd) donated a total of $10.6 billion to charities while 13.3 million volunteered 2.1 billion hours at their time and expense - the equivalent of a years’ worth of hours for 1.1 million full-time jobs."
