Re: Approaching BAE Systems and Google about Sponsorship
Hey 3156
 First off, welcome to CD and FIRST.Definitely follow RC's advice about the movie theater demo. It is a sustainable fundraiser that can be done every year and multiple times a year at a very low overhead cost. Team 11 and 1323 both do these types of events and it raises quite the penny. Quick fundraisers are the best in times of quick profit needs: carwashes, bake sales, pizza sales at school (sell a slice for 1.50 at the end of the school day). In a school of about 1300 kids we go through 10-12 pies of pizza per day. And that's just plain pizza! :O PM me for more help. Good luck this season, I know you guys will do great.

Re: Approaching BAE Systems and Google about Sponsorship
Hi Akash!
Thank you thank you! We'll definitely consider doing the movie theater fundraiser. Just have to find the place and organize it. We're currently selling donuts, hot coco, cinnamon rolls, and hot tea every morning in our school. Although it's not making as much as we had hoped, every dollar counts! I'm very grateful for your faith in us! Britney

Re: Approaching BAE Systems and Google about Sponsorship
One important thing to keep in mind when applying for the BAE Systems grant is that in the past there has been a requirement that you must attend a BAE Systems sponsored regional tournament (the purpose of the grant is to help offset registration fees). Exceptions are made to this rule (ie: if you have mentors from BAE Systems but live far away from a BAE Systems sponsored regional). It's still worth it to investigate in the summer in case the rules change. Good Luck!

Re: Approaching BAE Systems and Google about Sponsorship
Hi...
I work for BAE Systems locally (Norfolk, Va.) and they have been great with helping sponsor teams (they help sponsor the team I mentor on (1610)This coming year (and perhaps afterwards) BAE's involvement with FIRST might change. Walt Havenstein who was president of BAE (N.A.) retired this past year. Mr. Havenstein was a big supporter of FIRST. The new president is not as keen on FIRST as was Mr. Havenstein and I have heard BAE's involvement with FIRST may only be kept at the present level and not expanded. Only time will tell.
