Time-consuming and disruptive

Not tax-deductible

Not matched by employers

Inefficient ($3.7 B in sales, but only $1.7B goes to the schools) *

$2 billionthat could have bought

school resources goes to pay for the fundraising

merchandise, instead

Cookie dough, wrapping paper, chocolate, etc. merchandise
