The last four days before Christmas are all about doing good. It's about donations. We will briefly introduce you to our imaginary donation in a profile. Its motto is:

Small acts, big impact.
Time of origin: Timeless (but always trendy)

Personality: The donation is selfless and caring. It is always thinking of others and wants to make the world a better place. It is humble and focuses on making a real difference.

Appearance: Usually invisible, but noticeable in the recipient's joy, in the form of money, clothing, food or time.

Special skill: No matter how big or small it is, it is always a help in need!

Controversy & Scandal: Once refused to remain anonymous, causing embarrassing moments.
