Go to the local Chamber of Commerce and see if any business would like to sponsor your team. Tell them you'll name your name the business name. For them it's advertizing, for you, it's free.

You can look up fundraising on the net and find lots of companies that are willing to help you sell their stuff. Also, many direct sales companies, like Avon, have a fundraising catalog you can sell from, giving you a portion of the sales. Of course, there's always the time honored ones like bake sales, brat & hot dog sales, car washes, garage sales, auctions, golf events, walks & rides (for miles traveled), raffles and other such activities. You can put cans out at several businesses, with your particular event listed on the side. Hold a spaghetti, chili, chicken, steak, soup, salad, or other such dinner. I belong to Habitat For Humanity and I'm on the fundraising committee. We're looking for new ideas, because we've done all the above ideas. They're good, but we're always looking for something unique, that will get people's attention. We do something called Shanty Town, where everyone goes around getting pledges to sleep in a cardboard box overnight. They create whatever kind of box they want, decorating it and coming up with themes or whatever. We've turned it into a real festival, with rides and games, music & food. This was our third year and we raised over $12,000...and in a rural community too!. Being creative is important, because there are hundreds of other organizations trying to do the same thing. Hope it all works out for you. <*)))><

The easiest thing to do is go to local buisinesses, for example large chain restaurants and ask them for a donation form. Most restaurants are aloted a donation budget each month but you do have to go through their corporate offices. Fill out the donation form and send it in.

do you mean like the city teams. if so go to the city and get a list of the coaches. contact the coaches and see who might be interested in your sponsorship. thats what we did. and if it is expensive depends on what your idea of expensive is. You will need to have tee shirts printed out with your logo on it, at the bare minimum, talk to the coaches they will let you know what they would want from you.\nwhat kind of company do you have and what type of area is it in?

Cool! I'm glad someone wants to help out their community.\n\n-stream/river/lake clean up (organize a team of people to pick up trash and debris)\n\n-found a food bank\n\n-place recycling bins in town-based buildings (city government, libraries, post office, etc.) and organize a pick-up service for collecting the items\n\n-hold a race at your local track to raise money for a local, charitable cause

Is this through school?\n\nIf through the school there are organizations that can help with it.  Such as the big candy sales, car washes, selling flowers at the school which can be delivered, a bake sale, etc.\n\nIf it is through an outside group....\n\nYou can do some of the same things, but you can also go to businesses and ask them to sponsor your squad.  Which you will give them a letter of thanks and for their taxes (since it should be a non profit organization).  You can also have inexpensive t-shirts printed up where the team name is on the front and the back lists the sponsors.  You can probably get a tshirt printer to give you a break if you have them put their info on the shirt too.

Try the Boys' & Girls' Club in your town; the one where I am loves having them donated because the volunteers give keyboarding lessons to the Club members.  If you cannot find a phone number for the Club in your town, try your local  United Way office; Boys' & Girls' Club is funded by the United Way, and in fact the United Way office may be able to suggest other places for you to donate your old computer.

Check the websites of both of the teams over the summer, and they'll give details.  Also, the sponsors get a lot of tickets, like Mcdonalds, so if you know anyone who works for them, they could get some for you.
