As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullah wa barakatuh . . . There is great value in keeping one's charity between oneself and Allah, al-hamdu lillah, and from my experience such is always possible. Almost all of the fundraising events that I have ever been to, heard of, or spoken at, you can just simply fill out a form and make your contribution without being publicly recognized at all. Not sure how it is "almost impossible to be anonymous", unless of course you mean being anonymous to the organizers themselves too (and in that case you could just bring a large sum of cash in an envelope and just slip it in the donation box, end of story). To this point, online donations are known to the arrangers of the events as well, so no true anonymity there either. So honestly, going in person, with cash, is the best way to remain anonymous (just make sure no one sees you with the envelope filled with cash) LOL... ;-) May Allah accept and purify our hearts... Amin. Sincerely your brother, khalil abu asmaa Bismillah.

Well, it's almost impossible to be anonymous. That works against those who want to donate large sums, and those that want to donate small sums. When I had the money to donate a large sum, I got the creepy feeling that I was showing off, or just that others would think I was showing off. And when I didn't have the money to donate large amounts, I felt embarrassed about only being able to give away a few dollars. I know that Allah knows our hearts better than we do and that it is our intentions that really matter and not the actual sum, but hey, I'm only human. Whereas, when we donate online, we can donate as much or as little as we want without considering what others think about us. Of course Shaytan still whispers and makes it seem like we're never gonna get those bills paid if we give this donation, but that's going to be there anyway. Alhamdulillah, I'm glad they were able tor raise such a large sum. I think this may be the future of Islamic fundraising Inshallah. Wallahu Alim.
