This isn't true. There are charities that do exactly what you claim they don't do. For example, https://www.againstmalaria.com/Default.aspx https://www.againstmalaria.com/Default.aspx maps each donation to a specific bed net distribution, then gives you a status page (that you can share with others!), which tells you exactly what stage your distribution is at.
For example, I can see that one of my donations is currently in the manufacturing stage, one is on a boat travelling to the country, and one is being distributed to households right now.
After the distribution is complete, they'll post pictures from that distribution, as well as conduct follow up surveys in a few months, to ensure effective use. All this information is shared with the donor directly.
