Fundraising Ideas - Need Some to Share

[Shawn60]

We like to make money in bunches. We do some fundraisng at school, penny drives, sell candy, etc. But the best way for us to make money is through business presentations. We send out letters of introductoin, follow up with a call to set the appointment, make a presentation, follow up with thank you notes, and an invoice for the donation. We have worked on 15 companies thus far and have received $6,000 in a month and a half, commitments for another $6,000 or so, and two more companies who want us to get back to them to set up presentations. In Az we made it manditory that each team member come up with $200 in tax credits. With the tax credits we have earned about another $5,000. We also have local comapnies donate another $2,000 to $3,000 in parts and supplies for the robot.
