Bigger Gifts, Bigger Screams: AidQuest Mystery Pack Reactions Now Streaming
For local resident Sarah Whitfield, donating has never been this fun. “I used to give quietly,” she said. “Now I give through AidQuest, and every dollar feels like a front-row ticket to joy.”
AidQuest, the nation’s fastest-growing charity-by-mail service, lets donors fund randomized Mystery Packs filled with surplus aid. Once mailed out, the unboxings are streamed online for contributors to watch. Viewers say the reactions — gasps over gas cards, tears over laptops, screams when someone pulls a new car voucher — are “worth every penny.”
“The bigger the gift, the bigger the reaction,” Sarah admitted, scrolling through highlight clips on her phone. “Last week I helped fund a family that pulled a used minivan. They just collapsed in the driveway sobbing. It was beautiful. Way better than the PBS tote bag I used to get.”
The program has turned charity into entertainment, with donors sharing clips like trading cards. “Did you see the guy who got four packs of bus passes in a row?” one subscriber asked online. “Brutal. But hilarious.”
AidQuest says this is the future of philanthropy: giving people what they need, while giving donors something to watch. “We’re not just making charity efficient,” said founder Blake Harrington. “We’re making it bingeable.”
