Relating to teacher fundraising

HB 4940 ensures West Virginia teachers can use modern online fundraising platforms (like GoFundMe) to collect money for school-related activities without county board or school administrator interference. The bill amends state law to explicitly state that no county official may prevent teachers from using "crowd-sourcing or other meaningful current methods of fundraising." Schools must still publicly announce the fundraising purpose and designate the funds before starting, but the bill removes barriers to these methods. This directly affects K-12 teachers seeking to raise money for classroom supplies, field trips, or recognition programs through contemporary channels. The law does not change how funds are spent - only how teachers may legally collect them.
