Fun Fact: TechPoint Foundation is the organization that helped to start IndianaFIRST as a nonprofit. We share many of the same core values, and support each other as much as possible. We hope to compete against them in the final round of Brackets for Good.
FAQ #2:
How much of my donation goes to the team I designate in the memo line?
Brackets for Good takes a 3% + $0.30 service fee (other crowdfunding sites typically take >4.9%). The fee helps the nonprofit Brackets for Good continue to help other nonprofits. All of the money that comes to IndianaFIRST from BFG that is designated for a team will go directly to that team.
If you want to support a specific IndianaFIRST FRC team (and we encourage you to do so!) indicate in the memo line of your donation which team you want your donation to go to. We will allocate the funds at the end of the tournament.
Here is a list of IndianaFIRST teams, using the district ranking points website:

Note that we have TWO Rookie teams, and both are qualified for the State Championship event: 6012 and 5944.
It looks like we are doing fairly well against Indy Sports Corp, but please consider donating (even a small amount) to help keep our lead until the very end. It's going to get exciting this evening starting about 7:45PM.
