Have you done this?

• I am willing to share my stack trace and logs
• I can suggest a fix as a Pull Request

Expectation

display the page correctly
/dashboard/donations

The problem is that packages you donated no longer exist. Basically, you can edit the package, but if you delete a package that someone donated before, you will get an error.

once you removed from the the database donations to packages that don't exist anymore the problem was solved

Description

STAFF DONATION PAGE DOES NOT LOAD
/dashboard/donations

Ideally here if a package has been used in a donation it should fail validation to delete and instead make package active column to false. Or better yet we add soft deletes to packages and cover withTrashed packages on donations index.
