Reply To: Tuition committee requests

So now the question is, what happens if the family is being supported by outside sources. Outside sources mean anyone besides the parents of the child in question. Does that count towards what is considered “income”?

If someone wants to give a gift to their children and take them away for a few days of vacation, should that be counted against a family’s tuition break? What happens if it is someone totally unaffiliated with the family? Where do you draw the line?

Like Chai Lifeline taking a disabled child’s sibling on a trip? Doesn’t count.

Like Grandparents paying to take their children & grandchildren to a hotel for Pesach? Maybe.

Like Grandparents paying for their children’s seven figure home so the child can learn in Kollel? Probably.

Each case needs to be judged individually. I’m just trying to get the questions asked.
