Ignoring (and then discarding a letter) - even a very well-written one from a worthy cause - is far too easy.

Ignoring a couple of well-spoken robotics kids in your lobby is somewhat more difficult. Particularly if they are from a worthy cause...

Thank you everyone! For those of you asking... yes, we are tied to our school, and we are from a very small community. Our high school contains students from two tiny towns that together are still small. The student body for all four grades is roughly 1,000.

I suggest giving demonstrations at local community groups, they might not give much but if you meet with lots of them it adds up quick. This is how my team does the majority of our funraising, kiwanis, community trust, rotary, and things like that are very good to have supporting you.
