So I was talking to this couple while waiting for a table at a local place. They were in their 80's and celebrating an anniversary. So I talked to the restaurant manager, and the restaurant comped them a cake. And some restaurant patrons paid for their meal. No one involved in that wanted or expected anything. Some woman paid for my groceries at Walmart once and some guy bought my order at Subway. It's called random acts, most people don't brag about it, unlike Trump.
Yep.

And there is a scale that shows just how righteous any form of charity truly is in the eyes of the Lord:
1. Giving an interest-free loan to a person in need; forming a partnership with a person in need; giving a grant to a person in need; finding a job for a person in need; so long as that loan, grant, partnership, or job results in the person no longer living by relying upon others.
2. Giving charity anonymously to an unknown recipient via a person (or public fund) which is trustworthy, wise, and can perform acts of charity with your money in a most impeccable fashion.
3. Giving charity anonymously to a known recipient.
4. Giving charity publicly to an unknown recipient.
5. Giving charity before being asked.
6. Giving adequately after being asked.
7. Giving willingly, but inadequately.
8. Giving out of pity/Giving unwillingly.
