    I don't understand why anyone would complain or judge those donating to her. Charity is personal. Whether someone wants to rescue kittens or make another human's life a bit brighter, why waste your time judging people who obviously don't mind giving to a stranger?

    It's easy to support this woman because of the A to B rationality of it. You can see directly what the money goes to. For this woman to forget the kids.

    I don't think donating has as much to do with the financial as the satisfaction that you're one of the thousands that have responded to this for her. Even if everyone only gave a dollar, she'd still have nearly 25 grand.

    That number of supporters means more than the $20 each they're giving.

    • "For this woman to forget the kids"...with cash. Superb logic. This entire situation is a fucking tragedy, end to endbiusness
    • There needs to be a snappy name for what's happening here. The feel-good, mass donation to an arbitrary cause that's gone viralbiusness
    • Overcompensation.

    • The goal was a vacation for her. They can't help how many people wanted to donate.ETM
    • Based on what's known of her, she'd likely donate a good chunk back to the school district anyway.ETM
