Re: Fundraising Ideas

My team does several fundraisers, including but certainly not limited to:
-Garage sale
-Spaghetti dinner
-talk to companies for corporate funding
-Getting a machine shop to sponsor you cuts down on machining costs
-Restaraunt deals--each restaraunt has its own thing about this, and fast-food places are the most likely bets
-Bake sale
-Box Tops For Education (run by General Mills)
-Albertson's Preferred Card
-Our newest idea: get some VEX kits (borrow from local teams/people, or have club members buy for themselves or the club), set up a game booth at the nearest fair or show, and charge people to drive the robots and compete in game of your designing.

Any other ideas will work, and it is possible for a team to get enough funding without corporate sponsors. You just have to work hard, and maybe use the KitBot if it comes this year.
