I know that Alienware will donate free mousepads and/or tshirts if you host a lan party with 50 or 100 people and send them pictures of the event after a certain amount of time... note that 50 or 100 (forget which) people have to attend - does not mean they all have to be playing at once. It's not much support but free stuff in exchange for a few pictures or videos ain't bad.

Has anyone yet hosted a LAN party fundraiser? How successful was it? How was it run?
