[quote=Anonymous]People, OP IS NOT collecting for a group gift. She is collecting for class party supplies, like food, etc. She is not collecting for teacher appreciation, or Christmas, or end of year, etc group gift. OP, I've been a room parent enough times to know you are lucky to get even 50% participation. Some parents just won't give no matter what, and it is always surprising who won't and who will. It's never who you initially thought would, and it doesn't matter how good of friends you are with th family. Some people are just funny about money. Perhaps you can do one more email, requesting kids bring in money to the teacher or even set up a PayPal account. After that, eat the cost, pay for it yourself and see if you can take it off your taxes (my kids go to a nonprofit private, so I can just get the 501c3 letter from the school for my taxes). [/quote]
