Supporter recognition pattern
Use SupporterRecognitionSection to publicly thank individual donors and supporters — a flat, unranked thank-you list, distinct from CommunityPartnersSection's organization-focused cards.
Example

Individuals whose generosity helps us provide care, love, and second chances.

Standard
- A flat, unranked thank-you list — supporters are always sorted alphabetically by name within a category, never by gift size or date. There is no tier/rank field; a giving-tier donor wall is a deliberately different, out-of-scope design.
- Optional `omissionNoteText`/`omissionNoteLinkLabel`/`omissionNoteHref` render a quiet fine-print line beneath the list acknowledging a name may have been missed, linking to the site's `/contact` page. All three must be set for it to render; omit all three to leave it off entirely.
- No logo, no `url`, no dollar amount. Unlike `CommunityPartnersSection`'s organizations (which self-publish their own brand), every entry here names a real private individual.
- **Every name requires that person's explicit opt-in consent before publishing** — a business publishing its own logo is not the same as naming a private supporter. Default to a first name, or first name plus last initial, rather than a full legal name unless the supporter has specifically agreed otherwise.
- `note` is optional — a short line under the name (e.g. "Monthly supporter," "In memory of Bella"). Keep it brief and factual; this is not a place for a giving-tier label.
- A category with zero matching supporters renders nothing — no heading, no placeholder — same rule as `CommunityPartnersSection`.
- This is a companion pattern to `CommunityPartnersSection`, not a merge — compose the two on the same page (e.g. a site's `/partners` page) when a site has both organizational partners and individual supporters to thank.
- Never invent a supporter. Every entry must be a real person who has agreed to be named.
