Good point. I absolutely agree. Politics could easily kill a fine effort such as this. In order to minimize the possibility of it being politicized, funds raised/pledged/given should be just collected into one big, common fund earmarked for its purpose, i.e., "Scholarship Fund." In this case, there would be no "individual associations" named as "donors" or "benefactors". The entire fund would just be called, "Tagudinians International Scholarship Fund". It would be like getting a package from the "Salvation Army," or "Catholic Charities," or "UNICEF," or the "UN". Of course in the "account ledger" a breakdown could be maintained. For example, Tagudinians of Chicago (TAGCHI) - $2500.45, Tagudinians of Southern California (TAGSOCAL) - $2500.15, Tagudinians of Canada (TAGCAN) - $2550.96.... etc. (Just some examples). -- Tagudinians Message Board brought to you by Seaside Park

In reply to: Paul L. Villanueva 's message, "All I am asking is not to involved politics in this Tagudinian Campaign for Scholarships. If we do I am out here. We will try to accommodate all people who are willing to donate. I am just telling facts that are happening." on 01/ 9/05 6:42pm
