15. I think it is great to get kids to donate gifts or time and work to help others
What bothers me is the idea of their being asked to *select* needy peers. First of all, it can easily lead to the sort of problem described by the OP; and secondly, even if it doesn't, many of the needier children and/or their parents might find it humiliating to know that their classmates are evaluating their poverty.
