[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This does look like sloppy reporting. At our school, we pay the HSA for every field trip. So if 100 students pay $10 each to the HSA to go to the Natural History Museum, it would appear that the HSA "raised" $1000. Then if you figure there are 7 grades and each grade goes on roughly 10 trips a year, it now looks like the HSA raised $70,000. But that is not fundraising, that's me paying for my kid to go on a field trip.[/quote] And im sure your hsa will cover the cost for kids who cannot pay.[/quote] NP here- I think I am at the same school as PP. They've never had to in recent memory. The field trip money gets paid out right to the school to pay for the trip. Again, it's not tax deductible and not considered a donation by the IRS or anyone else.[/quote]
