It seems to me that, of all the aspects of FIRST Robotics, fundraising is the one where advice from other groups would be the easiest to give, and the most helpful. A simple 'car washes don't work, try a bake sale' could save some teams a lot of time.
Money has to come first, before anything else. Information like what types of companies to approach, what types of fundraisers work and which don't, would be very helpful for new teams. I bet a lot of established teams have helpful tips to give the newbies so they don't have to make the same mistakes.
Anyway, I was just wondering if I was missing a sub-forum somewhere, or if someone had an explanation for why this is the case. Thanks!
