My friends feel that a terrible meal is what should be expected at a fundraiser. I feel it’s disrespectful to the donors.
DEAR MISS MANNERS: I refused to go to a fundraiser this year because the food was so bad last year, and because the cost of the dinner was over and above the donations. I decided, with so many charities to choose from, to donate elsewhere.

GENTLE READER: Although your friends are not alone in their opinion, Miss Manners hopes fundraisers will not rely on such illogical passivity.
