@hotrod:

I reached out to our local 4H organization to start an afterschool RC class. They were pretty quick to give me the training as a 4H educator and link my up with local businesses that look for donation opportunities. A short presentation to an area manufacturing facility garnered the budget I needed to purchase 7 ECX Torments, batteries, chargers, and tools. In less than a year, we have a fully functional afterschool class in it's second session right now. The kids are stoked and the trucks are doing fine. 4H and other community organizations are looking for opportunities to reach out to local youth. PM me if you need any more information.

Yes it is. I am trying to bring some help on. I dont seem to have enough time in the day to get it all done. The 4h sounds like a good idea

Link up with the right group and they'll do most of the work for you. I received the money, went to the LHS with a check and bam! Done.
