Re: Broke

I'm surprised no one here has mentioned grant writing yet. If your team has some experienced writers, it is possible to raise $5000 or more with a single grant. Off the top of my head, Boeing and NASA give out large grants to FRC teams each year, and I'm sure many others exist. Do this in addition to the things everyone else has mentioned, and you should be able to sustain a team for years to come. Keep trying and good luck to you and your team!
