Why Donate?
Donating to us allows you to help support a local robotics team and give children opportunities to learn more about robotics and compete. Donating enough also allows your company to get more publicity by getting logos on various materials (t-shirts, banners, robot, etc.), which are seen by thousands of people at the FIRST competition.
Also, all donations to our robotics team are tax-deductible.
