FROM: the DEAD

To Money-Requester:

Your addressee, _________________________________ , is DECEASED.

1) REMOVE the name-address from your mailing lists.

This also implies:

2) STOP sending money requests to this individual.

3) STOP 'renting'/exchanging/sharing the name-address to/with other money-requesting organizations.

-----

NOTE: Money-requesters have misused the name-address information.

This individual now receives more than _________ requests-for-money each year ... sometimes as many as _____ per day

... from about ____ money-requesters.

Most charities 'rent' or 'exchange' or 'share' their mailing lists.

As a result, after just one donation, a donor typically ends up getting mail from a dozen or more charities.

It seems to be the case that the number of mailing lists, on which a donor name-address appears, simply grows and
grows and grows --- even if the donor does not give to any additional charities.

FURTHERMORE:

There are typically NO NO-COST, LOW-TIME-SPENT (less than a minute) 'OPT-OUT' options available --- for the 100's of
organizations (and their bulk-mail-services --- sometimes called 'processing centers') from which donors want to opt-out.

In fact, a lot of time can be wasted trying to opt-out, only to find that one is still on mailing lists.

YOU AND YOUR 'FRIENDS' CAUSED THIS 'SOLUTION': 

THE ONLY SOLUTION IS TO NO LONGER GIVE TO CHARITIES in any manner in which personal information is divulged,
such as name, street-address, phone number, email-address.

RESULT: THE WISE DONOR WOULD NEVER GIVE YOU ANY MONEY.

In this case, the donor is DEAD. The result is the same as pissing-off a donor.
This donor will never give you any more money.

IN CONCLUSION:

Do the world a favor. Quit wasting envelopes, cover letters, newsletters, return-address labels, calendars, notepads,
decals, bumper stickers, magnets, voided checks, coins, sweepstakes forms, raffle tickets, vouchers, etc. etc.

Quit generating tons of return-address labels that will never be used by a DEAD person.

And quit generating tons of trash that is being sent to trash dumps --- much of it without being recycled.

Sincerely, ANONYMOUS (for reasons indicated above)

P.S.
Note that you and your 'friends' are killing the charity-giving 'businesses' as well as the charity-giving scams.

Some of you send snail-mail money-requests as often as monthly, every-two-weeks, and even weekly.
The result is many 'turned-off' FORMER donors.
