Outreach

As a team, we love to do outreach and help in our community. Volunteering and connecting with our community is an enriching experience, and our team loves it! We are always looking for outreach opportunities to help others or spread STEM to younger kids. Some outreach we have done in the past include the program S.E.A.T (Senior's Electronics Assistance Team) that we created, Bridgeport Elementary's Space Night, and the Makerspace Festival. If you live near us, you might see us around sometimes!

​Now, in quarantine, we've started some outreach on Discord. If you are a member of any FTC team, please join our FTC Discord game night! It was more active in the summer and is on a bit of a hiatus right now, but you can still click here to join! If you need any help with school, you can also join our tutoring server for grades 7-10. If you are part of an FTC team and are interested in helping tutor others with us, let us know by emailing us. Click here to join our discord for tutoring help!
