Unique Fundraising Concepts

While visiting my local hardware store recently, I stumbled upon a pull-along leaf/lawn debris catcher that's intended to be dragged behind a tractor for fall clean-up. That got me thinking...

Imagine using a FIRST robot to drag that thing along and accepting donations in response... Imagine making that robot fully autonomous... Imagine adding a mowing attachment or fertilizer/spreader...

I think that there's a BIG market for such a fundraising activity. Furthermore, I'll bet that you'd learn a LOT about making autonomous, durable robots in the process.

Any other interesting fundraising concepts that maybe give you a chance to flex some robotic muscle?

Russ
