FRC teams hand out hundreds of buttons, if not thousands, over the course of a year at STEAM outreach events, scrimmages, regionals, and the World Championships. Getting the buttons made by a third party is expensive. Designing and making the buttons ourselves gives our students the chance to show off their artistic creativity, shows them what it means to finish a project by the deadline, and teaches them important lessons about good fiscal practice. With a reliable button-maker, we should break even on our button budget this year, and we'll come in about $300-$400 under cost for years to come. The money saved will provide scholarships to help pay the travel expenses of students with financial needs.
