Hilariously honest school fundraiser letter goes viral

From cake sales and sponsored walks to 'voluntary' contributions, the school year is jam-packed with fundraising events that take up almost as much time as they do money.  For moms and dads who don't have time to whip up a tray of cupcakes on a Tuesday night, or tap friends, neighbours and family for donations on a sponsorship card, the fundraising process can quickly turn into a hassle... and a subsequent guilt-trip if you don't get around to supporting it like you want to. So that's why, sensing their pupils' parents were growing tired of the fundraising slog, one school decided to take a different approach this year. Mum Dee Wise shared a refreshingly honest letter from her child's PTA online, where it quickly went viral. The note, suggesting an 'Alternative Fundraiser' offers some very down-to-earth suggestions... The note struck a chord with many parents at the school, including Dee herself, who found the humour amusing. What do you think, is there room for a little honestly and humour among parents and school staff? Let us know on Twitter @HerFamilydotie.
