[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If a kid comes to my door, I will always buy. I won't respond to blast emails about fundraising. I haven't had a team my kid is on ask to fundraiser or sell something but if I did I would just outright donate whatever money they want from each kid and take the write off (if possible).

In a previous team for one of my kids there was one child who literally lived in Section 8, needed a ride to every single practice, game and tournament, needed a scholarship to pay his fees and then needed someone to sponsor him for every single out of town tournament (take him, pay for his hotel, pay for his meals). He was a nice kid and he had no control over his circumstances. Unfortunately the club did not organize anything for him so it was up to a few of us parents to divide, conquer and pay. IMO this seemed like the only time fundraising would have been helpful. [/quote]

NP and just wanted to say I'm glad this world has good and generous people like you to step up and pay for that kid. Awesome.[/quote]

+2.  You're a good person.  I wish there were a way to organize donations for this specific situation (recognizing you also made a significant contribution of your time).  God bless you.[/quote]
