I think it's very strange to fight against something that a) you personally choose to do of your own free will anyway and b) financially aids your own child and his/her schoolmates. It's not like exposing them to McDonald's is some horrific thing that they all don't regularly experience regardless.
But then again, I'm involved in many corporate affairs that raise substantial amounts of money for such things as cancer research and community outreach programs, annually participating in events that raise over a million dollars that go 100% to charity with all overhead costs donated free of charge. It helps me realize that "corporate sponsored" doesn't mean "evil" all of the time, and that every time people choose to fight against such things it just makes it all that much less attractive for big donors to keep giving.
