Abstract: Philanthropy has always been regarded as an important supplement to the social security system, and has been playing the role of the third distribution in society. Based on the 2018 CFPS family tracking survey database and using the Probit model, the Tobit model and the instrumental variable regression, this article has verified that housing wealth has a significant role in promoting family social donation behavior and donation amount. It is found that housing credit, housing wealth changes in the short term, number of housing units, regional and urban-rural differences influence the incidence of housing wealth on family social donations to varying degrees. Using the intermediary effect model, it is verified that housing wealth adjusts the incidence of family social donation behavior through the subjective cognitive channels (sense of accomplishment, affinity) of the head of the household.

Key words: social donation; housing wealth; subjective cognition
