I know how fundraising goes man, I've done a lot of it.
Actually I can't give you exact figures, but I can tell you that the total was between 30,000 and 40,000 raised between the parents and the students and some of the advisors who volenteered their time. It is possible for smaller teams. This year the team only has 19 or 20 students, with about 7 or 8 full time advisors/mentors. For my expereinces with FIRST, I would consider this an average to small team. Good luck on your efforts.

By the way, I know that we made some times 10 times that at a Lions game.
