Hi, my name is Jacques Villeneuve, president of Mastermind Youth Foundation. We have been working tirelessly to revitalize extracurricular STEM education in our community. Over the past 12 months, we've successfully offered competitive robotics programs for youth ages 6 to 18 through our LEGO summer camp, our six FIRST LEGO League teams, and by supporting the Francobots French community robotics team.

Our first year has been a triumph, with students earning awards for their competitive achievements. This year, we're eager to expand our high school-level robotics program to serve the wider Sarnia-Lambton community. Registration for this new community team is open to any high school student residing in Lambton County.

These robotics programs provide invaluable opportunities for youth interested in STEM careers, as well as those keen on the arts and business. However, high-tech programs like these are costly to run and rely heavily on community support. Currently, there are no FIRST Robotics Competition teams that remain at the school level in Sarnia-Lambton, making our initiative unique in the community.

By providing a donation, you can help us build a strong foundation for STEM education in our area. Your support can make a difference in the lives of many young, aspiring innovators.
