For those unfamiliar with the glories of the United States Postal Service, a "P.O. Box" is simply a rented mail slot in a public post office.

Yeah I know. But I still don't understand why we the foundation have P.O. box address at the bottom of the email and not the S.F office. It's not that the office address is not public....

Obviously not in Fundraising so grain of salt but I think that's exactly the reason. If someone is using the address on a donation email it's usually for a donation (and any real mail that gets sent there can likely be forwarded on to us easily).
