Charitable Giving
If you regularly give to charities, you should insert a letter (or use our form letter) with your donation stating that you do not want the charity to rent, sell, or lease your name to any other organization. This will keep your name off of mailing lists of other nonprofit groups with which your charity may exchange donor lists.
