Final Answer : D, Explanation :  The martyrdom effect suggests that people are often more willing to donate or contribute to a cause when they have to undergo some form of hardship or sacrifice themselves. This concept is particularly relevant in the context of not-for-profit organizations, where the balance between the positive feelings derived from contributing and the notion that one's contribution involves personal sacrifice is crucial.
