[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP, took me a while to go through the responses. I am not saying I like the idea of these fundraisers, but I still contribute since it does help the school fund things it needs (there is a list of what the money raised will be used for). And I am genuinely shocked that people are not more generous on here - do you not donate to friends’ fundraisers? I try to contribute a little something to most donation requests just to be nice and support different causes that can make a difference for others.

All raffle prizes are donated so the school gets nearly all money - and the prizes are things like annual museum memberships, sports game tickets, iPads, video games, etc. And yes this is a public school. And yes, the class who sells the most tickets gets an ice cream party and extra recess. And the 5 kids that sell the most get things too like front row tickets to the school play, teacher for the day, etc.

And for those who asked - my DD is one of two grandkids (my other child is younger). DH’s older sister never married (has no kids) and no cousins or other kids asking for donations to anything.[/quote]

If you want your kid to get a museum membership, just buy her a f** museum membership. Don't ask other people to donate so she can get a prize. How selfish of you.[/quote]
