Four years ago, I asked three members of my close family who were likely to give me something for Christmas to make a donation to GiveWell/AMF (GiveWell's top charity at that point) instead of getting something for me.

Do you remember what you said? Was it written (like a facebook post) or spoken?

I asked in person in two cases, and over the phone in one, I think. I don't remember the wording I used very well.
