    $500,000 is no small amount of money regardless of how wealthy you are. Whoever does this is truly an Angel and humanitarian. And for them to want to remain anonymous......to not make it about themselves but to make it about love for mankind speaks volumes about their character. They don't need a talk show venue to make a difference in peoples lives. God bless you secret Santa whoever and where ever you are. You gave ME a WONDERFUL gift by just watching this.

      And what is more ... Giving to charity can be a good commercial. And even more, it can be a good tax manover. Giving to charity helps with amount of tax one has to pay. But giving it to a TV station does not. So this someone is doing double that. Double the chraity stuff some sports person or some company is doing.
      This person really is golden.
      Good on you!
      One day ...
      One day I'll do the same.

      If I could make money, gift it, then make money from that, I'd do it until the day I die.

    My name is joseph a Kenyan 33 years who have been jobless for some time. However, when I was working I had saved some money and after watching this I've realized it's not the amount of money you have in the bank account rather the size of your heart. That said I have an old uncle who requires his rent paid and I will be doing that and pay my mom rent to, not because I have but its what human being are made for. Giving feels so great.
    God bless you for changing my life

Nate is very respectful and does not try to hog the limelight for himself.

    I watched all 3 hours of this and cried over and over again. Thank you for this secret Santa. I will say it just reminded me of how many need so much .. All the money in the world couldn't fix this world. Hearing aids costing so much. So many people with cancer. This person is so lucky to be able to give so much to so many. That would be my wish while I'm still on this earth to give like this person can give. How blessed.. God bless all of you..

      @@PoorMansPreparing That’s very true and I never said it wasn’t, however the billionaires we see doing these things are massively, grotesquely wealthy, what they donate is NOTHING to them, and is also a tax write off.
      however there is no ethical way to become a billionaire. It simply isn’t possible to amass that wealth through hard, honest work. There are billionaires that try to be as ethical as possible (Bill Gates and Warren Buffet for example) by giving back to programs that help the people they’ve exploited.
      People fail to realize how much. 1bil truly is. If you spend $10,000 a day, it would take you 274 years to spend it. If you made $80,000 a year, it would take you 12,500 years to become a billionaire.
      Bezos donated almost $100mil to charities in one year. While that IS incredibly helpful, it’s also only .082% of his net worth. To us that’s like donating a penny. Any average middle class person that donates at the drive thru or cash register donates a higher percentage of their net worth to charity per year.
      When it comes to jobs they create, they are exploiting those people. They have enough money to improve working conditions MASSIVELY, with examples like Steve Jobs being worth $10.2bil, while his factory workers in China were living in such devastating conditions that they had suicide nets outside their dormitory windows.
      Amazon has been under fire for a WHILE for it’s working conditions, and the workers have to skip bathroom breaks to avoid being fired because machines manage their productivity constantly. They could also pay them more, while still making a massive profit.
      They just don’t.
