The LigerBots are Newton's all-city FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) team composed of members from both Newton North and South High Schools. Each year our students design and build an industrial-sized robot to play a novel game designed by FIRST, and then compete with that robot in local and regional competitions. In our pre- and post-seasons, team members focus on building technical, marketing, collaboration, and leadership skills. LigerBots serves as a focal point for project-based learning in Newton, participating in dozens of STEAM outreach events each year. We bring our robot and STEAM activities for kids to community events, mentor FIRST LEGO League (FLL) teams and host FLL competitions. We run an annual STEAM expo to inspire younger students and the entire community. The LigerBots are proud of the team we have built since our founding in 2008—earning many FIRST awards that recognize our success in developing a range of skills and advancing the goals of FIRST. To support the team, use one of the “Donate” buttons above, or email [email protected] if you are a corporate sponsor.
Why Your Company Should Sponsor the LigerBots
Now's your chance to support the future engineers and entrepreneurs of Massachusetts. FIRST FRC is a fantastic program promoting STEM education, but building the robot and attending the competitions is quite expensive. Please consider donating to support the LigerBots in their return to the World Championships.
How To Sponsor the LigerBots
Donations are handled through the Liger Alliance, which is the LigerBots' parent non-profit organization. The Liger Alliance is registered as a 501(c)3, although full approval from the IRS is still in process.
