FUNDRAISING
Our fall 2024 Crowdfunding Campaign at CMU!
Our 2024 crowdfunding campaign will open in November! Last year we raised $7503 from over 100 amazing donors! The funds helped us with purchasing robot parts for our 2023-2024 FIRST Robotics Competition season, which ended in our competition at the World Championship in Houston! Additional contributions can be made here!
Thank you for your support!
Contact us at girlsofsteelroboticsfinance@gmail.com if you have any questions about the team or about making a donation. We are grateful for donors like you who helped support our program.
Thank you!
Other ways you can help
We always have expenses related to building the robot for competition and running outreach. For example a roboRIO (like the “brain” of the robot) costs us approximately $435, and we used two for the two new updated chassis project workshop kits. Usually the first FIRST Robotics Competition regional registration fee is $6000 and the fee for the second regional is $3000; we usually attend two regionals per year: The Greater Pittsburgh Regional at a venue in or near Pittsburgh and another competition in Ohio.
In addition to funds for the usual registration fees and robot materials, when we travel to competitions, we need funds for mentor travel, cargo van rental, and more. Again, any amount you are able to provide helps!
We are meeting in person for both tech meetings and business meetings.
Thank you!
