To clear one thing up, BEST is not run out of pocket by anyone. It is also funded by corporate and other donations. It just doesn't have any paid staff.
Funding is raised by and goes to local hubs that then purchase kit materials and provide the kit and control system to a school for a nominal deposit that is refunded when the control system is returned. BEST currently has dozens of hubs like this nationwide serving about 700 teams.
