RE: The joys of living in the bible belt

In a related story, the JW's here had a table set up outside the grocery store. Here's the thing, they were not giving anything away, only selling (trinkets) and asking for donations.

So I'm confused, why would they be asking people, who they consider sinners, for money?  Wouldn't that money be tainted as far as they are concerned? 

Has anyone heard that the JW's are falling on hard times?

I found this about soliciting money: https://cult101.com/2016/06/14/do-jehova...for-money/
