This empirical study identifies the determinants of charitable contributions and the distinctive characteristics of contributors for seven different types of private nonprofit service organizations. For this purpose, the demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of 305 randomly sampled households, including respondents' age, educational level, marital status, homeownership, family income, number of income earners, number of dependents, volunteer experiences, and attitudes toward government spending in areas related to the charities are examined. Because of the significance of income as a determinant of contributions, the income elasticity of contributions is also estimated for each type of organization.
