Who we are

We're a student-led nonprofit from Fair Lawn, New Jersey. Our nine members believe every kid should get to try robotics, whether or not their school has a team.

We do more than compete. We take our robot to libraries, festivals and stadiums, send kits and lesson plans to schools abroad, and coach new teams through their first seasons.

Why your support matters

One robotics kit can start a whole new team.

That's what happened in Zambia. Donations pay for kits and laptops for schools abroad, supplies for community events, and help for new FIRST teams near home.
