520 $a This descriptive study explored the motivations and preferences for charitable giving among women and men who support Evangelical Christian higher education. Surveys were sent to a stratified random sample of 320 women and 320 men who had given $5 00 or more over three years to eight participating Council for Christian Colleges and Universities schools; the response rate was 72%. Five follow up interviews were conducted.
520 $a The responses of the women were compared to the responses of the men. Out of 31 factors measured, only five statistically significant differences were found, and only one was of practical importance: women had a slightly greater preference than men for receiving thank you letters from students. The strongest motivators for giving among both men and women were trust in the leadership, loyalty to the institution, a desire to help the next generation, and a desire to make a difference. Agreement with the organization's mission also proved important. Neither men nor women rated public recognition of a gift as important. No differences based on gender were found for factors related to the solicitation process.
520 $a The responses of the women in this study were also compared to the responses of women surveyed in two other studies regarding motivations for giving. Numerous statistically significant differences were identified. The data did confirm that women are motivated to give out of a desire to help the next generation and loyalty to the institution.
520 $a The study showed that Evangelical Christian donors strongly agreed with biblical stewardship principles. Those who claimed that their faith influenced their giving rated trust in the institutions leadership as significantly more important than those who did not claim their faith influenced their giving.
520 $a The author concluded that worldview played a significant role in determining motivations and preferences for charitable giving. It suggested that worldview was a stronger factor than gender in determining motivations for giving.
