How to Stop Receiving Donation Solicitations

I give to a few charities every year. Not a huge amount (about $40 to $60 to each). My three favorite charities are:

• The MSCPA (Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) - Charity Navigator Profile
• The HSUS (Humane Society of the United States) - Charity Navigator Profile
• The WWF (The World Wildlife Fund) - Charity Navigator Profile

I like giving, but I hate receiving solicitation from other charities to donate. I understand why they are doing it, but I have enough address label stickers to last me 2 or 3 lifetime right now!

I went on the hunt to find out how to get my name removed from shared mailing lists. I found an article on the Charity Navigator’s website, How To Stop Solicitations By Mail.

The bottom line is, in most cases, you have to pro-actively tells the charity NOT TO share your information. All of them should have a Donation policy page where you will be able to find where to write to request to be opted-out.
