[quote=Anonymous]OP here. The responses are helpful. I'm glad I asked this question before the party. I never thought that donating to a food pantry is a political statement. One of my goals is to teach my children to give back to the community and those less fortunate than they are. I see the point that a birthday party may not be appropriate for this. I'm not comfortable accepting gifts from other parents and the turning around and giving it to someone else. With the food pantry donation, everyone knows that this is where their gift will go. I'll mostly likely do a "no gift" invitation. It's a nice problem to have. DC wants to invite her whole class and having 25 kids at a public park with pizza and cake is fairly simple.[/quote]
