2016 Sea Perch Support Fund
Donation protected
The winners of the 2016 Regional Sea Perch Competition held in Pittsburgh in February were Hopewell High School (top High School Team) Harrison Middle school was the top Middle School team. Both
received an invitation to the 2016 National SeaPerch Competition and need help to raise funds which will allow them to compete at the National Competition in Baton Rouge, LA.
The Pittsburgh Council of the United States Navy League is a 501C 3 organization is supporting the fund raising effort by asking for you to send your donations through us to help them on their way.
Sea Perch is part of the ongoing mission to encourage our youth to pursue careers in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. This was a combined effort by the Navy City Outreach Northeast partnering with Penn State Center Pittsburgh and 4-H of Allegheny County and influential community leaders in Pittsburgh to make the SeaPerch program available to local schools.
SeaPerch is an innovative underwater robotics program that equips teachers and students with the resources they need to build an underwater Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) in an in-school or out-of-school setting. Students build the ROV from a kit comprised of low-cost, easily accessible parts, following a curriculum that teaches basic engineering and science concepts with a marine engineering theme. The SeaPerch Program provides students with the opportunity to learn about robotics, engineering, science, and mathematics (STEM) while building an underwater ROV as part of a science and engineering technology curriculum. Throughout the project, students learn engineering concepts, problem solving, teamwork, and technical applications. For more information, visit www.seaperch.org<http://www.seaperch.org/>.
These funds will help to pay their transportation, food and lodging. We need your support as soon as possible but before April 15 2016
We will be very grateful for your support.
