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 …

Similar to findings in the literature, conventional matching for the … novel matching scheme. The lab experiment provides more fine-tuned evidence for the change in crowding and yields further …

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 …
