Kind of. I agree partly. My mother used to knit winter clothes, for free, for some institutions and she wasn't the one delivering them. They never knew who she was, and she didn't bother.

Your mother was kind and intelligent enough to get satisfaction from the knowledge that she made someone's winter a bit more bearable. We should all strive to be like your mother.
