My Project

We are a 2nd year FTC robotics team at a public school in New York City called NEST+m. We have been doing many fundraisers but costs to compete in robotics competitions are expensive as registration alone cost over 600 dollars. One thing we have noticed during our three qualifiers over the past two years is that we could benefit from some materials to help us organize our tools and parts. This would help us work efficiently and keep track of all the materials when we are stressed out about fixing our robot.

Being able to to focus more on the robot itself and not searching around for various parts and tools will make us more efficient in both our competitions but also during our building and designing process.

Right now, we do not have space at our school to build the robot so we have to transport all of our materials to Cornell Tech and from there to the competitions around New York City. Having these materials would help us transport our robot and necessary tools and parts. We appreciate any support and look forward to using your gift productively to aid us in our STEM learning journey.
