Nonprofit organizations contribute to society through service provision, advocacy, and community building.

Nonprofits’ tendency to adopt such practices has become a contested scholarly topic, with, however, limited empirical evidence. Using survey data from nearly

Social enterprises (SEs), hybrid entities balancing revenue generation and social or environmental goals, often employ bricolage due to resource constraints.

This study examines the implications of excess cash in nonprofit hospitals.

How do non-governmental organizations (NGOs) choose their partners when working in transnational advocacy networks?

Volunteering in the Middle of Crisis and Politicization: The Role of Religiosity, Political Ideology, and Personal Experiences in Volunteerism Among Muslims and Christians During COVID-19 Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2024-07-23 Zeeshan Noor, Rafeel Wasif, Shariq Siddiqui
Religion is a strong social identity cue that creates in-group and out-group identity. Yet individuals can harbor multiple identities, and a political ideology is another significant identity marker. Similarly, personal experiences with disease also create another social identity where individuals may feel part of the same social group as individuals who have experienced a similar adverse event. How

Compassion for All: Real-World Online Donations Contradict Compassion Fade Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2024-06-20 Dominik S. Meier
People tend to donate more to help a single rather than a group of victims. However, recent studies were able to reverse this compassion fade effect by presenting people with multiple donation appeals with different victim group sizes (joint evaluation) instead of just one donation appeal (separate evaluation). Because practitioners often use the compassion fade effect to boost giving, the reversal

Few research has attempted to synthesize the effects of nudge tools in promoting prosocial behaviors through the lens of behavioral economics. This systematic review synthesizes empirical evidence of various types of nudges and their effectiveness in promoting charitable donations and volunteering. We identified 67 eligible studies with 117 experiments reporting eight nudge tools. We found that the

Volunteers are integral to civic and social life, and leadership is integral to keeping volunteers satisfied and committed.

An Invisible Impediment to Progress: Perceptions of Racialization in the Nonprofit Sector Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2024-05-17 Gregory D. Wilson
Popular beliefs about the nonprofit sector suggest it as a place devoted to the public good on behalf of disadvantaged individuals and groups. This dominant view implies an organization’s success or failure as the result of individual decision-making, capacity issues, or inability to behave like successful organizations. This fuels a view of the sector as race-neutral where all organizations encounter

Interpersonal Fundraising Methods Are Associated With Lower Donation Value Over Time Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2024-05-07 Cassandra M. Chapman, James Casey, Aakash K. Thottam, Cassandra France
Charities have invited public scorn through their use of chugging (or “charity mugging”) methods of fundraising, which involve interpersonal interaction between fundraisers and potential donors. It is not known how such mass market interpersonal fundraising methods are associated with donors giving over time. We analyzed transactional data from a natural experiment involving 213,404 donors to 45 charities

Why Neighbors Would Help: A Vignette Experiment on Reciprocity in Informal Helping Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2024-04-16 Marlou J. M. Ramaekers, Tanja van der Lippe, Belle Derks
Reciprocity in informal helping, or informal volunteering, is often seen as a way to ensure that people who are not altruistically motivated exchange help. Yet, it could be problematic for those who are unable to help, as they would be excluded from this exchange. We study to what extent people’s reciprocity expectations affect informal helping intentions and whether necessity of helping and perceived

Nonprofit organizations (NPOs) have long been recognized as playing vital roles in society. Nevertheless, a coherent understanding of how these roles align with broader social theory, and how to conceptualize the interface between nonprofits and society is still lacking. In pursuit of a solid theoretical foundation, we conducted a systematic literature review encompassing 119 publications spanning

This article explores the evolving nature of volunteering in fluid forms of organizing and their potential for civic action. While previous research suggests that highly individualized volunteering can undermine collectivity and disconnect tasks from change-oriented goals, thus diminishing its civic character, this study employs Lichterman and Eliasoph’s conceptual framework of civic action and Dewey’s

Achieving Organizationality in Large-Scale Crises: A Comparative Case Study on the Communicative Constitution of Spontaneous Volunteer Collectives Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2024-03-09 Christine Carius, Jan Graw, Carsten Schultz
Many large-scale crises require rapid responses from spontaneous volunteers (SVs). The more effective the way in which volunteers develop organizationality, the better they are able to coordinate individual activities, and the better they can cope with demands imposed by a disaster. However, we currently know too little about how SV collectives emerge and develop organizationality in the context of

Our study explores (a) the extent of underreporting behaviors, (b) the level of trust (or distrust) that nonprofit leaders have in overhead ratio reports, and (c) the motivations perceived by managers that drive nonprofits

To measure altruism, we used a probabilistic dictator game with real stakes. In a sample of 228 NPO workers, 73% opted to donate an average of 50 out of approximately 100 USD instead of retaining the entire 100 USD for themselves in the case they might win. Our results show

We explore religion’s modes of influence through multidimensional measures of religion and spirituality, including affiliation, membership, and salience. We introduce an analysis of spiritual practices to studies of prosocial
