[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Will someone please think of the children???[/quote] we are. Plenty of parents on here said they don't mind doing a donate-for-nothing. we just don't want to give half our money to a for profit corporation; we don't want companies using the kids to raise money, and we also hate the whole giving a prize to the kid who managed to guilt the most people out of their money. Do you think the relatives and friends of the kids know that half the money goes straight to the company? My sibling sponsored my DC last year but I hadn't realized how much goes to the company. I feel guilty now. I am not going to do it this year.[/quote] Every company that sponsors fundraising at schools takes a cut - even scholastic - and it is usually far more than the 50% of boosterthon. Now, I agree, donate-for-nothing is my preferred fundraising technique, but let's not think that Boosterthon is an outlier on this.[/quote]
