I know everyone in this thread is on the up&up, but imagine if some scammers started an organizition called WhateverFIRST and began fundraising....

you get the idea, FIRST has to protect their name and trademark.

Im not a lawyer, but I think at the minimum you would have to get a letter of permission from FIRST
Yeah, i know that......right now we are just talking about it

edit: i have contacted/ emailed FIRST about this.....


and FYI: we need someone to help with the website design!!
