What a claim record is How to read this page

One statement, bounded on purpose

The headline is a single claim that a named source supports. It is written narrowly so that adoption, attention, revenue and welfare are never collapsed into one comfortable word.

The three sections below the fold

What this does not establish is the boundary of the evidence. Counterevidence & uncertainty is what argues the other way. What would change the reading is the observation that would move it. A record missing any of the three is incomplete, not merely brief.

Primary routes are checkable

Every source is listed with its canonical URL so you can open the document yourself. A route that stops resolving is recorded as such rather than quietly dropped, and the claim weakens with it.

MWITA-CPCO-2026-012 · Evidence A · P1

Telling prospective donors that a lead donor had already covered overhead increased donation rate by 80% versus a seed-money appeal and 94% versus a 1:1 match; total donations rose 75% and 89%, respectively.

What this does not establish

The finding does not imply that charities should hide overhead, that zero overhead is feasible, or that overhead-covered framing works across every cause, channel and donor segment.

Counterevidence & uncertainty

Seed money and matching both improved giving, yet explicitly insulating small donors from overhead outperformed both, indicating perceived use of the donor's own gift mattered more than the mere presence of lead funding.

What would change the reading

Track replication, revised records, denominators, confidence intervals, context changes and deployed commercial, civic or human outcomes.
