I still get tons of political calls, texts, and emails from donations I made around 2016 and 2020. Is there any organization I can use to donate money that won't harass me in the future or sell my data to someone else who will?

(I got a text soliciting a political donation while I was typing this question!)

I’m all for removing the influence of money from politics. But as long as money remains the main medium of influence, people not donating to political causes as a matter of principle is effectively removing the influence of people from politics.
