| Abstract: | The paper develops a model in which a number of charities (or other non-profit firms) provide various bundles of public goods or services through private donations. The motivation for individuals to found and operate such firms is that it allows them to influence the mix of public goods. It is their decisions regarding the allocation of donations across uses that matter in the end. Donors to these firms take into account the allocation decisions that will be made by the organizations to which they contribute. |
