Summary/Abstract: For a few years Poles have had the possibility to transfer 1% of their income tax to various public benefi t organisations. Th e liberalisation of regulations concerning the transfer, launched three years ago, introduced a competitive element between the organisations trying to obtain the taxpayers’ money. Th us public benefi t organisations take up various promotional activities aimed at getting as much money as possible for performing their statutory tasks. Th e subject of this study is, however, not the actions undertaken by the organisations, but the motivation of Poles for choosing an organisation to which they transfer 1% of their income tax.
