The recipient doesn’t know the donor, and the donor has no way to prove their identity to the recipient.

Ah I see. I'm not sure that's technically possible, but if it were, that'd be great.

I think better would be simply outlawing any communication between a donor and recipient, if the donor wishes to officially remain anonymous. Not they "have no way" to prove their identity, but they're not allowed to prove it—or even imply it.

It will be claimed on their taxes im sure
