I’m not sure I should laugh at this, but I have to wonder what adult let the second graders put out a fancy poster advertising a 'Drive to Support Homelessnes' (sic).
Looking at the poster, I’m quite sure that a bunch of seven year olds didn’t put the thing together without adult input— The photo doesn’t look likely to have come from one of the approved image databases the school uses. There’s only one spelling error. The text and the image are balanced. The colors are neither garish nor vanishing into the background of the photo. And so on.
What they’re actually trying to do is get people to donate supplies to help members of the local homeless community survive the winter. I support that, and I’m going to see if I can find anything useful we can donate. I’m not convinced that my old sleeping bag with a broken zipper (it’s stuck halfway down the side and won’t budge in either direction) would actually help. I mean, it’s better than nothing and is Army surplus and so quite warm, but… broken zipper.
