Since Judy and the charity did not suffer any actual damages as a result of Craig's breach, they would only be entitled to nominal damages, which are typically a small amount of money (often $1) awarded to recognize the wrongful behavior of the defendant. Punitive damages, liquidated damages, reliance damages, and accounting for profits would only be available in certain circumstances that do not apply to this case.
