Since we have lived in our current house for the past three years there is this charity that has been a yearly annoyance to us: its people keep coming to our house insisting on a donation just because they have made a deal with the city to paint house numbers on the curbs even if the we did not ask them specifically. We don't like to be 'harassed' into giving; we already have our own charities we like to donate when we can. We voiced our concern to the mayor of the city several times. No response whatsoever, thus far.

JP!,
We just might copy your idea and add: "Your payment will be our donation to your charity."
