I have established a rule in my home years ago because it had gotten out of hand and I could no longer remember to whom I had promised a donation. The rule that stands now is “WE do not give donations over the phone no matter who it is” If they push I just ask “have you ever heard of Shalom Bayis?”. And that’s it. I tell them “If you want to send an envelope it is up to you. If my husband chooses to give he will, if not he won’t.” and that’s that.
