[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not disagreeing with the gist of the article, because I loathe those types of parents (and it's my demographic), but how much does a child's coat really cost at Goodwill? $5?[/quote] That assumes that a family has $5, that they can get to Goodwill, and that Goodwill has a warm coat in the child's size. That's a lot of "ifs." [/quote] +1, the family may have to prioritize over rent vs. food. Goodwill isn't always cheap either. I have gotten new coats for $5-8 at Kmart and Walmart but that is off season watching the clearance. The point is, it is a bit sad to fund/clothing raise for other schools but not make sure the kids at your school have what they need first.[/quote]
