Anything can be used from FIRST. Also, include in your letter:team accomplishments, community impact, student input, teacher/faculty input, past sponsors and reasons why they left, alumni quotes, and basically anything that can prove to a company that your team is worth investing in. Because this is how you have to look at your team and the business: your team is an investment and sponsors need to know why you are worth being invested in. If you can, try to meet people in person. That one-on-one approach can make a huge difference on a person's opinion.
Good Luck
