[quote=Anonymous]I'd rather give my money directly to the need so that 100% goes to the need. I don't like spending $25 on cookie dough (Sally Foster) that tastes terrible and only a fraction goes to the school. I'd rather give $25 to the school and skip the middleman. Also, I feel like the PTA people don't really care what the rest of the parents who attend meetings think. They have already decided how they want to do things. I didn't have the time to go to meetings when I was working FT, and now that I'm not working FT, I have gone to meetings, but don't feel that it is worth my time. I do try to help out with events, set up, etc., but I'm not big into buying things I don't want just so the school can get $1.40 or some small amount. I do like the restaurant nights b/c at least I'm getting something at market value (the restaurant meal) and the school is getting something too.... I'm not over-paying for junk.[/quote]
