I'm not sure of te topology around there, but you can get these 2.4Ghz dishes for *cheap* (I got one at a hamfest for $20 - spent as much on the rp-sma converter cost almost as much). If someone (or a colo) is near there, you might convince them to put up the same thing and work with that. I think you'd be ok with a amateur radio operator since you're non-profit (and should only need one since they'd be the control for the remote station).
If you setup legistics and aren't the same weekend as Shmoo (I think you are) I can help with that setup and check the regs and use my callsign.
