After this turn, put all cards from your deck and discard pile into your hand, trash any number, shuffle your hand into your deck, then draw 5 cards. |
Donate is an Event from Empires. It is a trasher with a Debt cost. It is perhaps the strongest trasher in the game, able to trash any number of cards from the buyer's entire deck.

FAQ
Official FAQ
- Effects that happen due to trashing cards (such as Rocks') will happen before you shuffle.
- This happens between turns, and so Possession (from Dominion: Alchemy) will no longer be doing anything.
Other rules clarifications
- The game ends at the end of a turn; it cannot end between turns.
- If the game ends the same turn you buy Donate, then the game is over and Donate's effect will not happen after that turn.
- If sufficient piles to end the game are emptied during Donate's effect (such as by trashing Hunting Grounds or Catacombs), the next player takes their turn and then you check if the game still ends.
- Cards played between turns (for example by trashing a Hunting Grounds to gain a Duchy and play Sheepdog) are discarded during the next Clean-up that happens.
Strategy
Donate works well with a wide variety of decks. Engines can use it to clear out the chaff after building up some, and combo decks can use it to guarantee that their pieces line up properly. It can also have uses in certain Big Money decks, particularly with cheap sources of Treasures, such as Delve and Market Square.
