I've created a reverse advent calendar, whereby instead of kids receiving a small gift/chocolate/lolly each day of December leading up to Christmas, they choose a toy/belonging that they will give up, and donate to a charity that will pass it on to children who otherwise wouldn't get any gifts on Christmas.

And that also leaves open the problem of possibly not knowing which files have been sent (when sending multiple files). There is also the option of adding the 'Move to Folder' (usually found in Edit > Move To Folder) to
