Bingo.  [b]This will get lots of lip service, but no real $$ traction.[/b]  [/quote]

Exactly. Every single person pushing for this is free to write a check for another school’s PTA if they actually think it’s important. Or even organize an effort among the local PTA to do the same.

But they won’t, because that won’t allow them the personal publicity. Oh look at me being a hero for brown kids!!!

They also know that many families wouldn’t want to contribute to this. So rather than just being honest and fundraising specifically for other schools’ PTAs, they’ve concocted this whole framework to divert funds that a normal person assumes will go to their own kids’ school.

If your ideas are so great and noble then stand behind them. [/quote]
