Another reason to give anonymously: You will avoid the flood of marketing materials soliciting more donations. If you make a significant donation to any nonprofit that's big enough to have fundraising staff, you will continue to get mail from them for years. What's worse, some nonprofits share their mailing list with other organizations, so you may also start to get marketing material from other organizations as well. [US-specific]: If you regularly make any non-trivial donations, it's worth considering setting up a donor-advised fund[1]. Among other benefits, it allows you to make donations anonymously, or to provide only your name, and no contact information.
