Thanks for the replies guys. Sadly enough the NASA grants application deadline just passed from what I've heard. We don't have that much money yet

in fact too little to speak of, that's why I came here for help. So again, what should be in the letter to the companies(sponsors); is it like I thought? Oh and we do have a mentor, but we can always use more help

.
Anyways thanks for the replies guys, I'm hoping for more
