Probably worth doing that anyway. No harm in having a spare about the place if it can be fixed. Though my experience with compact digitals is the exact opposite: they break over some minor mishandling and repairs cost the same as the purchase price or more. Granted most of my experience of this comes from when I broke my camera whilst twisting round to try and photograph my arse...
And it's not really a donation, so much as combination belated Christmas/early birthday pressie.
