    How to raise more funds with a commit now, pay later model

    Do you use a credit card for any purchases or contribute to a retirement account? If so, then you’ve experienced something called an intertemporal choice. An intertemporal choice is one in which the cost and reward occur at different times. For instance, with a credit card, you swipe your card to get the item you want right now, but you don’t actually pay the cost until you pay your credit card bill a month or so from now. With a retirement account, however, the money leaves your account now, but you won’t get to experience the rewards of that cost until way down the road when you retire. In the consumer setting, how intertemporal choices influence behavior is pretty well established, but can we leverage this idea for charitable giving as well? That’s the question we’ll be tackling today.

    How neuroscience intersects with nonprofits, could virtual reality be a fundraising tool, and are B corps natural partners for nonprofits with Nina M. Sooter

    Today we are joined by Nina M. Sooter. Nina is a neuroeconomics researcher at the University of Geneva. Her work focuses on moral and pro-social decision-making. During this conversation, we dive deep into her studies on how honesty is impacted by acute stress, whether virtual reality can be used as a fundraising tool, and how the B Corps label impacts consumer choices. She’s a big fan of interdisciplinary research and what’s great for us as practitioners is that Nina is particularly motivated to tackle questions that are relevant outside of academia. This makes her research and her advice very applicable to those of us who work in the nonprofit space.
