I can read and translate.
The quotation does not say “proper”
The word ‘Mutar’ as I learned it means permitted.
Simply because something is permitted does not make it a ‘proper’ choice for everyone.
If a charity/organization/institution needs my money gift to encourage others to give, I would rather put up a matching fund grant to stimulate donations large or small. The matching funds will be listed as coming from Aleph Bet Gimel Charitable Trust, not CTL.
Better every dollar go to the need than to the bronze works making the plaques.
Have you never seen a charity’s ad journal that lists a donation from anonymous? That doesn’t just mean they had blank space to fill, but some givers don’t want to be known publicly.
Have you ever seen starter checks? They have the account number but no account owner’s name in them? I have such checks that I use for Tzedaka. I can print copies of the paid checks on line for my accounting and tax records without the recipient knowing who gave the money.
We have quite different opinions as to the manner in which we make charitable donations. The important thing is that we make the donation. We prefer humility and privacy
