Mike: I really feel for the situation you're in, as we are in it almost every year, but we usually manage to pull through. We have always had students pay their way to nationals. We simply cannot afford to pay for 20 students, and everything else. This year, we needed to raise $2500 so we could attend two regionals, and nationals. We did this by having every student write ten letters to friends and family. This alone brought in almost $10,000 (We're talking in a 10 day time period) Obviously this won't work at this point, but you might want to think about it in the future.

Also, after this letter writing campaing, we started getting random donations all over the place. In total, we raised over $20,000 since the start of January, which is more than we raised in the last year and a half!
