There was a huge argument last year because the public elementary school hired a professional fundraiser to raise money. Would have been cheaper to just assess each family like $35. I won’t buy junk and only give to a few door to doors. I always give something to Salvation Army and Catholic Charities. I like how our pastor does it: Our parish has an $86,000 assessment per year for priest retirement. Please be generous, announced a few times a year. They always get it.
I’ve lived in countries where the govt does everything and people are not generous at all. Also in places where there are lots of beggars on the streets, so am used to this. Our beggars are just more hi tech than theirs. Enjoyed it.
