Abstract

Nonprofit organizations rely on private donations as a source of funding. As a result, this paper examines the effects of factors that shape public perceptions about nonprofits, such as nonprofit organizations’ professionalism and performance and their awareness of needs, on charitable giving from private donors. Because giving is likely to depend on particular characteristics of a sector, the analysis was limited to one sector of nonprofit organizations, nursing homes. The empirical results, based on 8-year panel data, suggest nursing home characteristics that affect private donations to this sector. This research is beneficial to scholars and practitioners who are interested in learning more about private giving. Policy implications are also discussed in detail. Subscribe to JNEL
影响公众认知的国家特征对慈善捐款有影响吗?养老院的实证分析
非营利组织依靠私人捐赠作为资金来源。因此,本文考察了影响公众对非营利组织看法的因素,如非营利组织的专业性和绩效以及他们对需求的认识,对私人捐赠者慈善捐赠的影响。由于捐赠可能取决于一个部门的特定特征,因此分析仅限于非营利组织的一个部门,即养老院。基于8年面板数据的实证结果表明,养老院的特征会影响私人对该部门的捐赠。本研究对有兴趣进一步了解私人捐赠的学者和实践者有益。本文还详细讨论了政策影响。订阅JNEL
