There is an article in the Toronto Star this morning regarding the inequality of fundraising for public schools across Ontario. I heard recently that the Land o Lakes elementary school had a bingo fundraiser at which only 40 people or so attended. It made me wonder if all the schools in our area are meeting their outside fundraising goals. If not maybe attention to the question in your paper could entice some readers to give top up donations to help out. Given the age of many of the people in Central Frontenac, for example, most of these people would have little contact with the school community and are unaware of the need for funding donations.
