I would like to add to CB's excellent explanation that a transitive verb MUST have an object for the sentence to express a complete thought. It may not have to be stated if it's understood in the context of the conversation, but if you say only "I donated" or "She told," those are not complete thoughts. (Just a stronger statement than his "can" have an object.)
