: Our team has always required fundraising of our students. It is a team goal (this year $5000).

: We are proposing a budget for next year, but our sponsor may increase the amount...

: How much do your students need to raise. Please respond!!!

This varies from one team to another:

How many events do you enter? (x4000)
How many members travel per event?
Airfare or buses?
Overnight stays at events?
Material costs for prototyping robot components and additional parts?
Do you have to pay for printing, paper, postage?
Publicity costs? Tee shirts, buttons, etc.?

Even if your sponsor pays 100% of your costs, the benefits
of holding a fundraiser are more than monetary. If your
team divides into committees, it's an opportunity for
everyone to work on the same project. On large teams, a car wash or
yard sale may be one of the few times, except for competitions,
when the entire team is together.
