I think that has become a challenge of this board - a number of "non-school" people are utilizing the info and contributing. While sharing this information is good, it can also lead to some time sinks if people see a post for something like a Cuisinart donation and the person posting is actually with a health organization (for example), not a school.
Do you think when people post, we should identify if we are with a school or another type of organization? Should we also indicate which state we are in so people get a feel if companies are only donating to specific regions.
I feel like I am one of the few people who got a "no" from Cabot Cheese and I am in the dairy state of MN. It seems like a number of the "yes" people are on the east coast.
I have also not received responses from Chelsea Piers or Ticket Liquidators (maybe these are primarily east coast/NY donor areas).
