Anonymous Philanthropist Mysteriously Leaves $1000 Donations Around Detroit

Anonymous Philanthropist Mysteriously Leaves $1000 Donations Around Detroit
National Philanthropy Day was Saturday but over the last seven weeks an anonymous benefactor has given out five envelopes of cash to communities groups in Redford, Michigan, near Detroit.

 

Over the last seven weeks an anonymous benefactor has given out five envelopes full of cash to communities groups in Redford, Michigan.

Envelopes containing $1000, in ten crisp hundred-dollar bills, were mailed to the local library, the Tail-waggers Animal Clinic, a civic group, a credit union and to the Goodfellows, an organization that donates holiday meals and gifts to needy families.

The one clue that ties all letters together, written on each – four digits, 1679.

But no one can figure out what the numbers mean. They do know the donations mean a lot in the Detroit suburb where 20,000 households could be served by such generosity.
