I like your idea of setting up a fund to support new teams and I think it would be even better if we can get money from outside FIRST teams themselves.

For FIRST to grow we need corporate sponsors. Collecting money from one FIRST team to support another one might help get a team through in a pinch, but its only redistributing funds within FIRST (as a whole).

For there to be real growth (to get a team at every HS in the country) we need to think big, and bring in outside money - more than what existing teams have now.
