[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, this is clearly a DC board, given the fact that people are talking about "only" giving $100 or $250.  I know for some families, those number are still a lot and intimidating.  
As many have said, participation counts for a LOT.  So truly, literally, feel free to give $5.    And I promise that no one in the development office will think ill of you or thumb their knows at the $5 donation.  They'll be happy that you participated and it will help the % of families who donated.  And Every bit helps.  Every. Bit.[/quote]

OMG, $5. Are you serious. I have never heard of a single person doing that. $100 is the minimum and when they publish the annual report donation amounts are grouped with 
$100,000 being the top tier and $ 250 or less being the lowest tier. [/quote]

So if a parent sent in a check for $25, your school would say "sorry, we don't want that money, the minimum acceptable donation is $100."?  
I sure hope you're just a clueless parent and not someone who actually has anything to do with fundraising.[/quote]
