This is our first year with a donor-advised fund...I actually opened it and funded it in the last few weeks. I just started making the donations for FY 2018 (even though I realize that our donations are done, I don't want to make the charities we've supported wait longer than usual for our annual support), and I'm torn on how to handle the attributions, which is what Fido calls the line where you can make your donation in your name and address, just your fund name, or anonymously. For most of them I put just the name of our fund, but for a few like local chapters we support, I put our names and address on there, too (which I'm not worried about, as we have a PO box). And for most of the biggest donations I put that, too, as the "leadership circle" newsletters do have some useful information, although one organization mostly floods us with solicitations, and so they only got our fund name as the attribution.
So, how do the rest of you handle the attribution for your grants, balancing privacy vs. membership/information?
