I agree that the NASA grant is great and the fact that teams struggle after the grant is not NASA faults. But, what if the NASA grant (and other grants) required teams to create a fundrasing/sponsership plan before recieving the money? The plan doesn't have to be extremely detailed, but something so the team understands that eventually they will be responsible for funding their team.
