Abstract
We analyzed fifty years of inflation-adjusted data on the Annual Giving program of Princeton University.

Besides providing insights into factors influencing donations, these models provide a way to unmask features that are not evident in the raw data, such as trends in giving behavior and exceptional performances by particular classes in particular years.
