Abstract
New attempts regarding supply of local public goods which is financed mostly by donation, are implemented by non-governmental organizations, and they are expected to satisfy various preferences such as those of local residents. These attempts and organizations have common problems of fund raising. In this thesis, the effect of so-called seed money in the voluntary supply of local public goods is testified through field experiments, from aspects, such as the promotion of the involvement of beneficiaries, and the increase of the amount of donations. Finally, policy implications regarding the voluntary supply of local public goods are introduced.
