Powering Innovation: Electrical Supplies for a FIRST Robotics Team

Help me give my students essential tools to learn real world electrical skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Marr's classroom raised $399

My Project

Each year, our high school robotics team spends the months of January and February taking on the massive task of designing, building, wiring, and programming a fully functional robot. In order to safely achieve their goals, our students need a variety of tools. Electronics are especially important to a robot, as a single electrical failure can create a variety of issues with the robot. It's important that our students have the correct tools and that they are in good working order so that they can build a great robot and keep safe while doing it

FIRST Robotics provides an incredible learning opportunity for students to get hands on experience with engineering, and new electrical tools will make sure that our students working on the electronics get that amazing learning experience.

With these tools, they will be able to learn real world skills such as soldering and wiring, and apply important safety measures to make sure there are no accidents.

With new electrical tools, we can inspire our students who are interested in real world careers in technology and engineering, and make sure that a loose electrical connection never keeps our robot from success on the field.
