Last time I went canning, we made $1820 in 5 hours.
That's $364 an hour & almost $73/hr per person.
And this is a charity event that raises money to help support the families of kids with cancer and the expenses/treatments that come with it as well as further research. People are good people and willing to give because no one wants little children to be dying of cancer. No one wants anyone to be dying of cancer.

NO. You forgot the 2.5 hours you spend driving wherever and the 2.5 hours you spend driving back to PSU. You also spend about $50 in gas for the trip.

PS. Panhandling is illegal in many areas.

Looks like this d-bag didn't gain admission to Penn State and he's taking it out on our nationally-recognized philanthropy. Keep it up, my friend. Keep it up. No one really cares what some loser thinks of our community service efforts that have helped many families.

We Are...Penn State!
