Pleasant letter

The few knocks that preceded the opening of the door sounded at noon in Aurora's office. The friendly girl thanked the courier and sat down curiously on the sofa in the middle of the room. When she touched it, it was immediately clear that the envelope contained money, but in addition to the money she found a piece of paper.

Hello, Aurora. My name won't tell you anything, but I am pleased to write this text to you. My goal is not only charity. I watched your interview and it made a good impression on me. I have no doubt that the funds will go where they need to go, and moreover, I am fully convinced of your sincerity. Therefore, I ask you to develop your cause globally.

"Well-wisher."

By the time Aurora read the letter, the courier had already gotten into the car and left, there was no return address on the envelope.

$10,000 is a lot of money that could do a lot of good, Aurora thought as she held the envelope of money in her hand. Her curiosity had been piqued all day, she wanted to know who the person was who had donated the money. Before, in the short history of the foundation, the amounts donated were much smaller and people saw with their own eyes how and what their money was spent on. A few days later, having gathered a small group of volunteers, Aurora set off in the direction of the orphanage, taking gifts for the children. The principal, a woman approaching old age, was overjoyed at the offer to do some minor repairs to a few rooms. Aurora trusted the principal, but she didn't just give her the money and suggested that she bring in workers or hire someone local to cut costs and eliminate the possibility of theft. Unfortunately, the poverty in the country and the high level of corruption that came from that same poverty, Aurora thought, had lowered the level of trust in people to almost nothing.

The renovation was nearing completion a few weeks after it had begun, the money allotted was enough for two rooms, plus the purchase of a few beds, two closets and two small rugs. There was so much more to do and Aurora realized that what had started as a hobby was becoming a serious project. There was no profit to be made, the foundation was only taking in funds to continue its existence, but if it came to expanding the foundation, the original idea of immersing herself in the process would be lost, and that was what scared Aurora. She didn't want to become a foundation of which there were thousands, and the benefits were not as significant as they could be, and maybe a lot of them were not sincere. So Aurora thought as she sat on the window sill, staring at the raindrops on the other side of the window that were falling rapidly downward.
