Re: Who are your sponsors?
 

Along with what Jason said, our team also has 74 proud grandmas-yep, we have every member on our team have their grandma give a five or ten dollar sponsorship. Their name gets on our sponsorship poster and goes everywhere we do, and they have their own page on our website. Over the summer, our team also does many car washes to help our team. Hope that helps!

Re: Who are your sponsors?
 

Unfortunately, our school district doesn't really like the word "sponsor", so we have had to go through a long process of attempting to get a system that we can receive donations through, so our school and district has completely funded our operation this year

:D Team 433 (aka The Firebirds) is mainly sponsered by McNiell
However, I do believe that we have several other smaller sponsers...but I'm not exactly sure who they are yet, I'll post them when I find out. :D

Re: Who are your sponsors?
 

Our sponsor since 1998 has been The Gillette Company (Gillette). It has been a privilege to work with the professionals from that company. If there are any large corporations near you, don't be afraid to ask...the worst they can say is "no."

Re: Who are your sponsors?
 

If it helps, you should also differentiate between a "sponsor" and a "patron". The act of sponsorship implies much more of an ownership and active participation in the team, whereas a patron may be more passive and only doing a financila contribution.

So, most teams have a "sponsor" that supplies not only funding, but also supplies the mentors. Yes, you can and should get lots of "patrons" to provide donations for some sort of recognition (patron book listing, name on your shirt/robot, etc)

Our team, 1511 Rolling Thunder is "sponsored" by Harris Corporation's RF Communications Division in Rochester, NY. But we also have many "patrons" that provide funding and all of that was student-driven as part of the annual team participation requirements.

yes, every parent has connections into one or more local businesses that is a ripe pool of patron possibilities....
