[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it so tacky. Our team is really pushing this, and I cannot bring myself to ask friends to donate to my kids' activities. Do you do it anyway or ignore? [/quote] what do you mean? our public school sport team get very little funding(nearly none) from the school. Sure SOME parents are well off, and they absolutely do donate, but how else would they get uniforms or gear if they didn’t fund raise? do you think the 5 wealthy families should just pay for everything? I was helping with uniforms and we need new uniforms this year. The old ones are ripped, stained and many of them lost. it’s thousands to replace. [/quote] The question isn’t about fundraising for sports. It’s asking whether wealthy people should do this. Regardless, people have their own kids and truly people don’t want to be hit up for things like this. Garage sales, do a dinner at the school and the team serves and clears and cleans for “tips,” offer yard services for donations (our local HS crew shoveled and made money doing this).[/quote]
