A poor woman who needed help for her children praised Allah, “I pray to Allah and thank donors for helping me through Islamic Relief, and I pray for all people who love doing good for orphans and poor people,” Naseeb’s mother said. “Thank you for helping orphans and planting happiness in their hearts. I pray that Allah bless and reward you for what you give.”

A thankful prayer to Almighty God by people helped, is a glorious gift to those who give.

There is no generosity without freedom. If the choice is "be generous, or die", then the ability to be generous never existed.
Goodness isn't compelled; it's a decision.
...and being generous with OPM (Other People's Money) misses the definition of generosity as well.
