I work for a charity and am in charge of corporate relationships. I am just announcing a new partnership with a well-known department store and was asked to send over the text I wanted to put on our website. This is what I sent them:
"Staff will be helping xxx through fundraising activities as well as offering their time and skills to assist XXX in other areas of its work."
and this is what was sent back:
"Staff will be helping xxx through fund-raising activities as well as offering their time and skills to assist xxx in other areas of it's work."
Needless to say I won't be changing what I wrote...

Am I being unreasonable to expect marketing/PR people to be able to spell/use grammar properly?
