Micro-donation

Hi kiddo! Do you know what donation means? It means giving something to help someone who needs it. Now, a micro-donation is a very small amount of money that people donate to help others. It's like a mini donation.

Let me give you an example. Have you ever seen those donation boxes at the store where you can put in some coins or dollars to help a charity? That's a form of micro-donation. Or when you see people crowdfunding for a cause, where people can donate as little as $1 or $5, that's also micro-donation.

Micro-donations are a great way to help many people, even if you only give a little bit. A lot of times, small amounts of donations from many people add up to a large sum, which can make a big difference in someone's life.

The good thing about micro-donations is that it's easy and convenient. You can donate using your phone, computer, or even by text message. Some famous micro-donation platforms are GoFundMe, Patreon, and Kickstarter.

So, in summary, a micro-donation is a small amount of money that people give to support a cause, and it can add up to a significant contribution that can make a difference in someone's life.
