Help Build the Future!
Educating students in the sciences, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM) will foster the next generation of leaders who are capable of designing and implementing solutions to many of the world's problems. For example, at the local and international scale, young people with STEAM degrees are working to develop treatments for diseases as well as generating ideas for sources of energy. Ultimately, their work will help to improve our lives. It is critical that interest in these areas be encouraged at a young age, and sustained. We need challenging and engaging programs that nurture innovative thinkers. FIRST robotics is such a program.

“FIRST isn’t about building robots; it’s about developing life skills. The kids learn skills in relationships, teamwork, finance, fundraising, budgeting, and project management. The partnership between academia, the community, and industry...will build our future employees and future citizens.”
