本研究係以行政院主計處於2003年9月17日至30日所執行之「中華民國九十二年台灣地區社會發展趨勢調查報告－社會參與」為分析資料來源，旨在瞭解國人在捐助行為上的特質及其影響因素，以期做為日後非營利組織尋求捐贈金錢或物資時的參考。 主要的研究發現如下： 1.從事捐款行為的個人當中，其人口特質為：女性較男性有較高參與率；世代參與方面則集中在中高齡者，年齡越長者，參與率越高；有配偶者比沒有配偶者有較高參與率；教育程度以及全年收入越高者，其捐款參與率也越高。2.會從事捐款行為的個人當中，其概括的社區參與，在參與社團、參與志願性服務、捐贈衣服物品食物、參與捐血活動等面向，均能對其參與捐款慈善行為產生正面影響。 就上述的結論，非營利事業的管理者可以大致瞭解參與捐款行為之國人背景。因此，非營利組織在從事勸募工作上，應可針對這些已經是潛在而且有意願參與捐款行為的個人，激發其捐款行動。此外，在努力開發潛在捐款人的同時，非營利組織更應持續與既有的捐助者維持相當的關係，不論是有形的實質獎勵或無形的心理滿足，強而有力、穩固的支持力量，將有助於非營利組織永續性經營。 This research which was based on September 17 to 30, 2003 the Republic of China Social Developmental Tendency Report – Social Participation.
