my husband made a several hundred dollar donation to an organization I am involved in by bidding very high on some items they were auctioning on ebay (2 weeks ago). someone emailed me a casual thank you for the donation, but I have not heard anything from the group's directors who know us personally.
yes, you make a donation with the expectation that you don't get anything in return...but i am irked that no one else has acknowledged it at all and would like for my husband to be thanked properly so he doesn't feel like it was not appreciated.
i think the directors might not actually be aware of the donation because the person that thanked me is handling the money and I don't think she informs them of every single donation that gets made.
I am trying to think of a non-tacky -casual way to make them aware of the donation that he made so they will thank him...but not sound weird about it...should I just get over it?
