3. Talk to your school about offering support. You are not only representing yourself, but the school and community you live in.

4. Create a crowd sourcing account and send it to your local community leaders, post it on your social media sites, and ask your administration to also spread it around.

5. Babysit! $10-15 / hour = a lot of money quickly for a high school student.
Try #4: Create your own PiggyBackr fundraiser and send emails to family, friends, and even Team 980 members/parents!

If you want to volunteer for the event (doing #1 on the above list is highly recommended), go to the FIRST Volunteer Information Management System (VIMS) here:

With 600 FRC teams competing at Champs, FIRST needs volunteers!
