  4. Script “We will be talking about donations of time and money to charitable organizations. Charitable organizations include religious or nonprofit organizations that help those in need, or that serve and support the public interest.” …

  5. Script … “They range in size from national organizations like the United Way and the American Red Cross, down to local community organizations. They serve a variety of purposes, such as religious activity, helping people in need, health care and medical research, education, arts, environment, and international aid.” …

  6. Script … “Our definition of charity does not include political contributions. Donations include any gifts of money, assets, or property made directly to the organization, through payroll deduction, or collected by other means on behalf of the charity.” …

  7. Script … “This interview is limited to donations made during the calendar year 2006. During the year 2006, did you (or anyone in your family) donate money, assets, or property/goods, with a combined value of more than $25 to religious or charitable organizations?” …

  8. Script If YES… “Did you make any donations specifically for religious purposes or spiritual development, for example to a church, synagogue, mosque, TV or radio ministry?”

  9. Script If YES… “Altogether, what was the total dollar value of all donations you (and your family) made in 2006 towards religious purposes?”

  10. Script Same two questions for: • “Combination of purposes” • “Help people in need” • “Health care or medical research” • “Educational purposes” • “Youth or family services” • “Arts, culture, or ethnic awareness” • “Improve neighborhoods or communities” • “Preserve the environment” • “International aid or promote peace” • “Other than those we just talked about”

  18. Script “Let’s talk about volunteering through the kinds of organizations we’ve been discussing. By ‘volunteering’ we don’t mean just belonging to an organization—we mean doing unpaid work.” …

  19. Script … “Some volunteering is ongoing, such as coaching, helping at school, serving on committees, building and repairing, providing health care or emotional support, counseling, delivering food, doing office work, and weekly church work.” …

  20. Script … “Other volunteering is occasional, like neighborhood clean-ups, fundraising drives, and special activities during the holidays. Now think about January through December of 2006. Did you do any volunteer activity through organizations?” …

  21. Script … “During 2006, how often did you do volunteer activity at or through your church, synagogue, or mosque, such as serving on a committee, assisting in worship, or helping others through programs organized by your place of worship?” …

  22. Script If YES… “How much time did you typically spend during one of those volunteering sessions?”

  23. Script CATI multiplies annual calculation… “Over all of 2006, that would have been about ___ hours of volunteering at or through your church/synagogue/ mosque. Does that sound about right, or did you volunteer more or fewer hours?”

  24. Script If more or fewer… “Then (during 2006) how many hours altogether would you say you volunteered at or through your church/synagogue/mosque?”

  25. Script “Are you including the occasional times when you might have done a lot of volunteer activity on a single day?”

  26. Script If NO… “If you add this occasional volunteering time to your regular volunteering, ___ hours, how many hours altogether would you say you volunteered at your church/synagogue/mosque?”

  27. Script Same combinations of questions for: • “Children and youth” • “Senior citizens” • “People in poor health” • “Help people in need / basic necessities” • “Bring about social change” • “Other purposes or activities”
