So on Friday, November 23 I learned the administrator in charge of giving out funds had just decided to not fund FRC. for those of you counting that's 14 days before the money is due, now I realise that budgets are tight (they decided to start a vex program from scratch) but it would have been nice to get much
more notice. After hearing this i decided to do something I had never done before I decided to fund raise. Now after calling ~112 local and national Technology and Engineering companies I had not a single person who could remotely help us in time. I did not directly reach a decision maker at 6 companies so I left a message and await a callback however I doubt very much that they will collectively provide the 5,000$ required for registration.
