The donation products can be viewed on several standard locations in your Magento 2 webshop
- Homepage
- Sidebar
- Cart
- Checkout
Off course it is possible to implement this block on any location by a Magento frontend developer. Or in a cms of category layout update via the Magento Admin. Xml example is provided in the 'Full Size Block' chapter.
When clicked on a charity of the customers choice a popup will open with the charities details and a add to cart button.
You can also create a regular category with all the donation products with a regular product detail page.
A "Donation Product" has a lot in common with a "Virtual Product". It has no stock, weight and doesn't need a shipping method or address to be set in the checkout.

FAQ
Can i combine the 'Donation product options' with 'Custom options / Customizable Options'?
Although its not supported, it can be done! You have change the following template by overwriting it with your own custom template version. vendor/magento/module-catalog/view/frontend/templates/product/view/form.phtml. You probaly have to hide or remove a duplicate addtocart button
The donation product uses the 'product_info_form_content' container. This is only rendered when no 'Custom options' are found.
<?php if (!$block->hasOptions()):?>
<?= $block->getChildHtml('product_info_form_content') ?>
<?php else:?>
<?php if ($_product->isSaleable() && $block->getOptionsContainer() == 'container1'):?>
<?= $block->getChildChildHtml('options_container') ?>
<?php endif;?>
<?php endif; ?>
If you want to render both 'Custom options' and 'Donation options'. Change the if statement.
<?php if (!$block->hasOptions() || $_product->getTypeId()=='donation'):?>
<?= $block->getChildHtml('product_info_form_content') ?>
<?php else:?>
<?php if ($_product->isSaleable() && $block->getOptionsContainer() == 'container1'):?>
<?= $block->getChildChildHtml('options_container') ?>
<?php endif;?>
<?php endif; ?>
