[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are missing the point here that it's a fundraiser. You can lower your ticket prices to appeal to lower income families but they are not your target audience in terms of highest dollar spent per person. Do the research, the most profitable galas in DC for DCPS have an average ticket price of $60 or above. Hell, Step Afrika a non for profit organization is selling gala tickets for $350. [/quote] ITS tickets are $40 with food and open bar. Free tickets by private request. Staff are free. From what I understand they try to make the actual event social and raise funds at and before the event. They still manage to raise $80-$100k even with having ticket prices at cost. I tip my hat to all parents at all schools that work hard for these events. It's no easy task and you'll never satisfy everyone. [/quote]
