I have tried my hardest to not respond to any of your posts since the discussion last year about the same topic. Today, you have pressed the button and will get a response:
you suggest a child be rejected for a lack of money? you say a family should choose between food on the table vs. tuition? you suggest a family homeschool their kids?
Here’s a sweet secret as to why the wealthy benefactors of a city pay the tuitions of the poor families. It’s not for the sake of the schools. It’s for the sake of the poor family’s children future. Without formal education these children will be the next generation of poor families unable to send children to school. The tuition is paid in order to BREAK THE CYCLE OF POVERTY.
This should be the priority of every donor. NO MONEY SHOULD GO TO INSTITUTIONS OUTSIDE OF YOUR CITY, UNLESS EVERY INSTITUTION IN THE CITY IS ABLE TO WITHSTAND THE FINANCIAL BURDENS.
