Re: What Does "Our Team Really Needs Funding" Mean To You?
I know exactly what you mean. Our team was having a hard time this year on raising funds, and it was only through a generous donation by a parent that we are able to compete this year.
One thing I think that could help (which I think they have) is ways for companies to donate to a team through FIRST itself. We had been turned down multiple times by companies in our areas because they would not donate to a Booster club, which is where our funds are "stored". Or maybe even if the regional FIRST associations would do that sort of service. I know the Texas FIRST just recently got 501(c)3 status. Just a thought.
