Sponsors come and go, the real impact that FIRST will see is going to be the loss of amazing mentors as GM closes plants and offices that they work at. Many of those mentors are very dedicated to FIRST but they will have to think more about their families and finding work rather then spending time working with a FIRST team. Here is Delaware the GM plant is closing affecting over 500 jobs, I can't imagine what life is like in some of the towns where the GM plant was the life's blood of the town.
