We have thought about doing a movie and charging admission or holding some type of outreach event with an admission fee but again, this is hard for us because we aren't a large team. We do a concession stand at our local FLL qualifier but it doesn't raise as much money as we would like . Any ideas for fundraising? (that we may actually be able to do ).
Byfar the best fundraising tool teams have is the ability to get corporate sponsorships. Contact local companies and ask if you can present for them or do a demonstration and show them what you do. Any money, materials, tools they can offer is much appreciated, and if they feel their money is being put to good use, they may increase their sponsorship over time.
