We're a school. Yeah, it's painful and slow. We've been weighing putting together a 501c or something similar. It would be great if we could do something through ParentBoosterUSA and regrant into it (I've heard a lot of good about PBUSA), but I doubt we could regrant to anything other than the school account.
