Overview
Mission
Form 990-EZ, Part III, Statement of Program Service Accomplishments - Statement 3 The Mission of the Hollis Brookline Robotics Booster is to promote, guide and support all robotics K-12 programs within Hollis and Brookline. Our primary financial focus is on the high school robotics team FRC 1073 because they require the most support, but we engage with all teams in the Hollis Brookline communities. This year HBRB supported one FTC team 22760 at the middle school, one Community FTC team 24488 and a community FIRST Lego League team 62986 within the Hollis and Brookline communities. More information about FIRST can be found at http://www.firstinspires.org.
What it reported doing in 2024
Form 990-EZ, Part III, Statement of Program Service Accomplishments - Line 29 - Support one Hollis Brookline Middle School (HBMS) and 1 community based FIRST Technical Challenge (FTC) Team 22760 (13 students) and Team 24488 (9 students), respectively as they raise funds to purchase parts and supplies for designing and build a total of 3 robots to meet the annual FTC challenge. Using STEM skills, students design, prototype and manufacture parts to assemble their robots. These students successfully built and operated their robots that met all of the challenges in the game this year. We also supported one FIRST Lego League team 62986 by providing robot kits.
