[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our school is looking to do the Boosterthon. Is it really that bad?[/quote] Yes, if it is sponsored they take 20-40% of your profits[/quote] I do not get why people get so upset about this percentage. All other fundraisers have costs. Only a portion of book sales go to the school. Auctions are so inefficient it is ridiculous. I buy something for $100, someone bids $80 on it. So in total people have spent $ 180 and the school gets $80. And that does not even take into consideration the cost of advertising, decorations, drinks, etc. With boosterthons, it is just easier to see that some of the donated money goes somewhere else. No one has yo participate. And it brings in money from somewhere other than parents. [/quote]
