If I know my manager, he won't have a problem with me using the FoF program, that's what it's there for, but I don't think he'll know any more then I do who we could ask if they'd consider donations. There actually is though a charitable program, where we can take time off to go work for charities. Presumably because it's a tax write-off, so you never know, they might surprise me. If I can find out who the sales people are for this region, they might actually ask if they can come and do their pitch to the group. (shrug). Worst answer they can say is no.<br>
