How much do you need to raise?

[chris31]

We were planning on a budget of about $8000 for this year. Luckly we ended up raising $11,600 so far. The $8000 would equate to about $500 a person. However all the money was raised by 3 students (one being myself) working hard to get corprate sponsors. We choose to go to a local regional that we can drive to each day so that we dont have travel expenses.

Team Amore doesn't have a set amount each member has to raise. We ask each member to go out and try to find sponsors but usually it is a one or two members who end up getting monetary support . And this support mostly comes from corporate sponsors.

A. Our team members have no set amount they need to fundraise to be in robotics. As long as they want to learn and are actively involved, they get to work on the robot and attend the local Arizona Regional.

B. Travel to our local regional is free for club members since we only need a school bus to get there (which is like $100 combined for all 3 days). Out of state travel costs must be fundraised by the student; if we can get additional monetary support beyond our initial regional and robot, that will help to reduce the travel costs for students, but each student it expected to contribute some for travel. This is largely the reason we haven't traveled out of state in 3 years.

C. Pretty much. If students fundraise nothing, we go no where.

D. In order of amount made...
1. Corporate donations
2. Arizona Tax Credit Program
3. Personal donations
4. Bagel sale
5. Entertainment book sale
