I told my wife that I would simply tell them face to face that I am not ready to participate at this time. If they want more info as to why, I will let them know. My guess is that they won't.
I would be less direct.

Don't send the email.

Don't respond. Just ignore and it will go away. That usually works for me. They know to only request money for local families, local kids on missions and none of the bigger stuff. I support the ward and not beyond that.

Do you want them to accumulate a database in case your child wanted to attend BYU and that child is forever excluded because you sent or responded nastily?

Being unavailable has its advantages.
