you find a wallet
You find a wallet in the parking lot of a gas station. You open it to find it has $182 and a Mexican ID. No US address. What do you do?

Turn the money in but keep the ID. Then I use the ID to smuggle myself into Mexico so I can live in a country with a single payer health care system.

Leave your phone # with the cashier at the station if anyone come looking for something.
Write a letter to the address on the ID, have them call you to ID what you found.
If no response.
Donate the funds...

That's probably what I'd do. Right up the "donate funds" part. Sorry, but I'd give it 30 days, then it's "finders, keepers". So sue me.

Yeah, this is the path I wanted to take.
Do the right thing within reason.
I lost my wallet once, 1977 or so. I got a call about 6 months later that it was in the lost and found at Radio City Music Hall.
Cash was gone but I got back all the ID and credit cards.
