LETTER OF INSTRUCTIONS NO. 1385 -
MINIMIZING FUND RAISING CAMPAIGNS DIRECTED AT SCHOOLTEACHERS AND
SCHOOLCHILDREN |

WHEREAS, the educational system needs improvement in terms of teacher compensation, equipment and physical facilities;
WHEREAS, in recognition of the difficult times, government should help minimize the frequency of fund raising campaigns intended for non-school related causes and which are addressed to schoolteachers and schoolchildren, in order to channel as much of the funds available from these sources towards the improvement of the school system itself:

1.

students in fund raising campaigns, including the sale of tickets to
benefit functions, shall be limited to those undertaken for the direct
benefit of individual schools or of the educational system and to those
specifically authorized by Law, namely the Red Cross,
Anti-Tuberculosis, Girl Scouts, and Boy Scouts campaigns;
2.
Contributions for such fund raising campaigns as may be authorized
pursuant to this Letter, including those identified in no. 1 above,
shall be on a purely voluntary basis, without any quotas being assigned
to schools, teachers or students;
3. The
Ministry (Proper), Regional Offices, Schools Divisions Schools or its
other component agencies shall not devote any of their scarce resources
in the furtherance of fund raising campaigns other than those
authorized under this Letter.
