Any funds required for the day itself can then be collected beforehand. I think the TDOR must absolutely be reserved for solemn reflection and resolute conviction that our community will continue to fight against the causes of violence that plagues us. Let's pick a day before the TDOR as a day of Transgiving, a formal opportunity for supporters and able members of the community to contribute to our needs.

PERIOD! Honestly Nancy, you can kiss my ass. Nancy,

Before that we took up collections to pay for the church. That doesn't mean it's the best thing to do, but nobody objected previously, so maybe you can see why the committee might have decided as they did and cut us a little slack.

I will not and do not condone raising money at a TDoR event. I can not take part in this. If people want to do something out of the "kindness of their hearts" then they don't need a logo to stamp on TDoR. Good luck with that. Peace, Ethan Nancy, we have all year to donate money to whatever fund raising efforts are needed. I will not and do not condone raising money at a TDoR event.
