Ok we all need money in this time of need but it's really getting to me! Today I was sent an invite to either send money or attend a BBQ fundraiser for someone's legal fees because a bio mom wants custody but was denied legal aid( legal aid denies custody cases), of course there was a youth fundraiser dinner tonight( I have no idea what it was for) and for the past 2 days a fundraiser plant sale for a horticultual society across the street adding more cars to a park area( also my kids and MIL helped sell plants), yesterday a round it up to the buck got me and so did a kids school fundraiser. I mean times are tough but what gives? I have no problem throwing a $5 to a person who's house burnt down as that's a huge loss or a child in need of care but jeeze in the last month I must have been hit with findraisers once too many. I refused to let my kids go door to door selling chocolate bars for school as we already hit people up 3 times this year and I feel it's way too much in these money troubled times(I know many who lost jobs and now live off barely anything). BTW the kids school has a fun fair next month that will most likely cost me $100! I know I don't have to donate to all these fundraisers but this is just in two days and each week I'm asked atleast 3 x to donate to the same charities! Sorry just need to vent a bit.
