FIRST Fundraising Toolkit

[Taylor]

I got to see the primary author of this project present the toolkit at a workshop over the weekend. It is definitely well-researched, well-thought-out, and well-constructed. After compiling the best practices of many successful teams, the plans were tested by multiple teams in varying situations.
It appears to me that the title may be misleading - this document isn't just for fundraising. It covers all non-technical aspects of a successful, sustaining FIRST team.
I plan to spend a good portion of my fall break poring over this document, adjusting it to our specific needs, and letting our newfound organization propel the CyberCards to a successful future.
Thank you Renee for putting this together, and thank you Evan for promoting it to the masses.

We held a workshop that presented aspects of the toolkit to attending teams at the Ohio FRC State Championship on Saturday, Sept 28th. It was well received. Maybe you could do something similar at Cage Match
