We are a 2nd year team looking for some sponsors to financially support our team.

We are currently a partnership between UMass Boston and Boston College High School. We have survived this season with very limited corporate sponsorship, but more on small donations. And so far so good. We took home 2nd place at the UTC regional and was also given a "fastest robot award" by a veteran team.

We have 5 undergraduate students working with 39 high school students on this project. Along with faculty and parental support from the high school side, we have stayed afloat and have made a comeback from our rookie year last year. And so far so good.

If you are a corporation who would like to help in the spirit of FIRST, as well as become part of an awesome team with enthusiasm and dedication as its main fuel, then come join the RAMBOTS. It's an investment into the future that you won't regret.

hence the post for more?

do you even know the budget for a team?

ask mr. bradley for the original budget list we had (i made that). As you know, we're already in barebones mode instead of being able to breathe freely.

If I spent the time getting money like last year, we'd have it. But no, I decided on working on the bot this year which is why we have one (remember last year's?).....

mwhahahahahahhahahaninny.

ps. I must say though that I commend your efforts and accomplishments at getting us sponsors.
