Sad. Youd think folks would have more empathy. My kids first school was in a low income area. Parents couldnt afford to join the PTA. So we started a volunteer group. When we wanted to have a teacher appreciation day, each volunteer brought what they could, one apple, some crackers, etc. It turned out fine and everyone felt good about making a contribution. Tickets to the Spring Fling were 10 cents (or maybe a quarter) and one family of 5 showed up in their church clothes, so excited to be there, and bought $5 of tickets and had a great time. We could do this right if we focused on community instead of consumerism.
