[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People do mean well with the donations. I bought a backpack at Aldi to donate for $8 and another gentleman in the group I was helping to collect donations from bought 20 $5 backpacks from Five Below. No, most people aren’t donating LL Bean backpacks because that’s not as cost effective. The entire donation budget is blown on one backpack rather than several plus supplies.[/quote] Of course people mean well. However, it’s not cost effective to buy bookbags that are too small or quickly fall apart. It would be more cost effective to have people donate $5-10 and then the money used to buy the right type of backpack in bulk. [/quote] The program we were collecting for does offer that option.[/quote]
