A mysterious benefactor has distributed at least 200,000 euros in cash donations to various institutions in the Braunschweig region since the beginning of the year, the German news agency reported on Tuesday (August 6th).
A facility for people at the end of life was thus given Monday 100,000 euros in cash, or 200 tickets of 500 euros, according to local media.
The money was found in an envelope addressed to the regional newspaper Braunschweiger Zeitung and mentioning the recipient of the donation.
" Helping people who are seriously ill to die is a sign of human warmth and deserves respect and recognition, " the generous benefactor wrote, adding that the money had been properly reported to the tax authorities.
" We do not know (who he is) and we do not want to endanger these good deeds " by seeking to know more, said David Mache of the Braunschweiger Zeitung.
In the past, this anonymous with a big heart has already left envelopes of 20,000 or 50,000 euros, according to the same source. In recent years, several anonymous donations have already been sent to various charities.
According to the regional public channel NDR, the newspaper Wolfsburger Nachrichten received last year an envelope of 100,000 euros for the construction of a second facility for patients at the end of life.
