Re: Is your FRC team a nonprofit?
The Baltimore Area Alliance teams got a small local family foundation to agree to incorporate the local FIRST teams. Donations to these teams can be sent to this foundation, and the donors get a tax write off. It's not a lot of work for the local foundation. It is a little work for the local Senior Mentor (me). And the BAA teams have discovered the effectiveness of fundraising as an alliance.
Carol, maybe your presentation could be expanded to include other best practices for organizing the financing of teams. Could have a panel of different ways. Just an idea....
