Our indiegogo Rookie Team #4795

[ming08108]

We have started an indiegogo to fund our team. We have gotten the NASA grant but nothing else which is why we need to do this.
We have had trouble raising money in the traditional way which is why we are doing this.

We would appreciate it if you guys could help us promote it, as we have little experience in this area.

Thanks,

In all honesty, it will probably be rather difficult to fund a team this way. What our team does every year is have each person write 10+ letters to family and friends asking for donations. We use pre-written letter with spots for the recipients name and a few personalized sentences. People generally are much more willing to donate if they are personally contacted.

Unfortunately ablatner may be correct here. These tend to not work out.

Shoot me a PM, I took a look into your school website and there are a few places you can ask for help. The first place to look is your school's alumni association.

PM me for some help.
