I agree. If he just gives 100 for 2011 and another 100 for 2012, joining the waiting list is pointless. He's not getting a call for 2012 season tix.

That said, it's only $10...and for someone that's not familiar with the process, it is a good idea to learn how the waiting list works, etc, so it's probably good "practice" for future years. Get into the habit of joining the waiting list each year, and at some point in the future you will get a call.

Agreed -- but I was focused on his "limited funds" to contribute comment.

So I gave him the "formula" for maximizing his points with ONLY $300 to donate total.

Another bit of advise I'd give..... find out if the company you work for matches charitable contributions.... if so... make sure you donate through them or send in the appropriate forms.... that'll double your points on the philanthropic side of things too.

Then if at some point you happen to find some money to donate a wad to TAF --- you can get the bonus points associated with a $5000 donation with "only" $2500 out of your own pocket.

Thank you for all the input, for the 2011 membership, do I just donate to one of the programs or is there a specific place I have to put the money?
