Maybe it depends on *how* anonymous they want to be. The usual reasons are "not seeking publicity" and not wanting to get sold off on some charity sucker list. I've done some database work for the local public radio station. As far as I know all donations are listed under the donor name in the database, but access is for those with a need.
For our dance series, so far, the anonymous donations have all been cash in the hat by the cashier table, and probably nothing over $10 at a time.
