Rural Robotics Team Needs Materials to Build Their Robots!
Hooray! This project is fully funded
My Project
We are a small, rural robotics team from Viola, Arkansas. These parts will be used in the design and manufacturing of our competition robot for the FIRST Robotics competition 2024 season. Students in FRC develop presentation skills, study business management, Engineering and Design, Mathematics, Coding, as well as Teamwork and Cooperation.
FIRST charges a $6000 entry-fee to compete in one event every year.
These materials will allow us to use the funds we have already raised to pay that fee and still have materials to build the actual robot! Two years ago, on a shoe-string budget, we made it to FIRST Championships. We would like to do that again! Last year, thanks to DonorsChoose, we had enough money left over to go to a second competition.
Our team raises all our own money for registration and materials to build our robot! Anything you can give helps!!!
