New results for an economic experiment on charitable gift restrictions and donor behaviour demonstrates that offering the option to limit a charitable gift increases the average gift size for donors who choose to restrict their gift and for those who do not. These results suggest that restricted gifts are an important tool for increasing donations and may be less costly to the nonprot organization than originally believed.
