In my kids school there is NO option to be anonymous. You don’t have anywhere to check  that option and the school knows up to the last cent how much you donate. Also top donors become board members, which I find it a bit corrupt. You pay a price to have a say in school policies.[/quote]

Wow, you sound really bitter....and a bit ridiculous.  I guarantee you that anyone can send a donation as anonymous. to any school.  You are either making that up, obfuscating important details, or otherwise misinformed.  Secondly, there is a general expectation that Board members are going to provide some level of support to the school at a level that they see as personally meaningful.  In my last school board, I could afford it and donated five figures.  Other trustees whose families were on financial aid or otherwise didn't have the funds, gave $100 and no one batted an eye.  The only ask was to give whatever you could afford and lead by example.  And for the record, I was never given any "favors".
