Re: Help with acquiring money for team

The way 294 has raised money in the past, or atleast no corporate donations, was just sitting around a phone book calling electronics and home improvement type stores, also comic stores seem to be very willing to donate money. This may not be the best or most successful way to raise money, but it has worked in the past for us with a decent amount of success

Re: Help with acquiring money for team

Elaborating on what Siri said, food fundraisers can really help. Our team went to several restaurants and asked if we could hand out fliers to people. When they showed the flier at the restaurant and made a purchase, part of the profits came to us. We received about $100 per restaurant. If you do multiple restaurants, you can make some big cash.

You can also ask a restaurant to sponsor you by giving free food for your team meetings.
