The Golden Jubilee

Welcome to the public school system. Jacob's school is having a walkathon fund raiser called the Golden Jubilee. I am not sure what the school told the children, but Jacob came home and started talking to me about the walkathon.

Jacob: Mom, we are having a walkathon, can we give $400 dollars?

Mom: No, not $400.

Jacob: How about $1000 dollars?

Mom: No.

Jacob: But we will get a prize for the person that brings in the most money. We can get a water bottle.

Mom: Jacob, for one thousand dollars, I can buy you a lot of water bottles.

Jacob: Really?

Mom: Yes, really.

Jacob: Mom, what does raise money mean? Does it mean they will stack the money up so high?
