Hit 500 anonymous donations last week and it messed with my head

I've been giving $5 to random GoFundMe pages for about two years now, just as a quiet thing I do. I hit 500 donations last Tuesday and I realized I've never once looked at what happened to any of those people. Like, do I even care if the money helped or was I just chasing a number?

You never checked on a single one? That's wild to me.

500 donations and zero follow through is just collecting receipts.

Ever had a friend who collected donations for a shelter and just stopped answering calls after a week?
