Bettina cares for folks without meeting them or their families. Why?

Do they know that she does this? Do they want her to? Do they they pay her to do this? Does she care for their: health? Physical needs? Mental health? Religion relevant? Spirituality? Is she a volunteer? A professional? Does she speak to them? Does she use electronic communication? WAG: is she a scambaiter, protecting people from scams?

Are the people being cared for alive? Dead? Long dead? Dying? Ghosts relevant? Spirits? Heaven? Hell? Purgatory? Non-Christian life-after-death mythology? Resurrection? Rebirth?

Does Bettina know the needs of those she cares for without ever meeting them? did she research about their needs? guess? have justified assumptions?
Does she individually know the people she is caring for (like, their names, some individual characteristics of them)? or is she rather caring for a group as a whole without knowing who individually belongs to that group? (like: giving money to a school development fund)
Does she physically interact with the people she is caring for? hand over something? deliver something?
Is she caring by: supplying them with things? money? providing assistance? help? advice? counseling?

Does she humanly cares for them, like you would a random person? Did a past event contribute to this? Has she been on the other end of the line, where she was helped instead?

*************************************************$POILER**********************************************
Bettina restores and cares for old graves of people she’s never met. Some are from the two World Wars, and some from centuries earlier than that. It’s unlikely any of their relatives will still be alive, live nearby, or even know that these ancestors exist. Recently, other locals have started to join in!

Well done to Galfisk for the solve, and to JenBurdoo1, trebor2 and Sundowner64

Welcome, Fate :-)

This puzzle's been solved by Galfisk, but I couldn't see your post till you'd been approved. Have a look above at the SPOILER.
