My neighbor's daughter came by a couple of weeks ago. I haven't seen her in about 5 years. I didn't even know who she was. She said her mother sent her around the neighborhood to ask for donations to her cheer leading camp



I had a couple neighborhood girls come by the house when I got home yesterday asking if they could walk our little dog because they were trying to raise money for church camp. Not long after that, they had set up a Lemonade stand by the street. I appreciated that hustle on their part.

If a kid shows they are willing to work for it, I tend to give a little more.

People asking at stoplights with buckets or coming to my door and asking are no better than Suzy Methhead asking for change at the stop sign.

The OT will gladly help you fund your kid's team. What's your wife's OF?

Wait until the fall and all the football pool fundraisers start up again.

Only $10 a square, $100 payout per quarter. Make sure you buy squares to help us fill up for both the LSU and Saints games this weekend

My ex is always doing this between dancing and high school band. It's annoying. We didn't do it before because i hate fundraising so i would just pay her bastatd's stuff. Now she hits me up for football squares or car wash coupons.

Me too. Every time they come home with raffle tickets or junk they have to sell, I always say "How big of a check do I need to write so I don't have to pester my friends & coworker to buy (because I know you won't sell this stuff)."

You REALLY don't have enough to do.

Mind your own facebook business.

Average OF makes about $150-180 per month.

Post her OF.

Why someone would lie about being a cuck for TD status, makes no sense.

You're not running a fundraiser. Your kid isn't offering something to raise money. Youre just soliciting


This is like the kids that come up to you at a red light asking for money for their basketball or football team. Why not do a car wash to raise money instead of just asking for cash?

I remember when travel softball teams would solicit money at the stoplight instead of on Facebook. I wasn’t moved then either.

They stand outside Wamart and grocery stores now just asking for money. No car washes, no bake sales, no lawn mowing, just "gimme money mister".
