Is there a way of matching donations that avoids crowding out? And, more generally, what is the best way to utilize a … matching method, some simple theoretical considerations, and evidence from a large-scale natural field experiment on charitable … giving. We compare a standard linear matching scheme with a novel matching scheme in which the matched amount is allocated …

Is there a way of matching donations that avoids crowding out? We introduce a novel matching method where the matched … matching for the same project results in partial crowding out in the field experiment and, as predicted, crowding out is … reduced under the novel matching scheme. The lab experiment provides more fine-tuned evidence for the change in crowding and …

We study a form of threshold matching in fundraising where donations above a certain threshold are topped up with a … fixed amount. We show theoretically that threshold matching can induce crowding in if appropriately personalized. In a field …

Previous studies of charitable giving have focused on middle or higher income earners in Western countries, neglecting the poor. Despite this focus, the lowest income groups are often shown to contribute substantial shares of their income to charitable causes. In a large-scale natural field...

While increasing the number of small donors, standard linear matching schemes have been shown to cause considerable … crowding out in charitable giving with pronounced effects on large gifts. We propose a form of threshold matching where … threshold matching can induce crowd-ing in if appropriately personalized. In a field experiment, we explore how thresholds …
