Help FLL Robotics Team 492 Travel to a Worldwide Competition

Hello, we are First Lego League team 492 Kraken Trackin'. We have recently qualified for the WPI WAFFLE 2025 international invitational competition and we need YOU! It’s been over 5 years since our team has made it this far and you can help us get there, by donating to our team, supporting our youtube channel and sharing this post. Any donation counts even if it's small, so help us out if you can!

Our team of 10 individuals has worked tirelessly to get to this point, by spending over 7 hours a week practicing our robot runs, editing our scripts, and working to make a functional prototype. We placed 9th in the state and were ranked in the top 2% of teams in Illinois. This is a truly amazing accomplishment and we hope to be able to travel to our competition this summer.

Why Donate?

By supporting us, you are helping fuel the future of robotics and stem and supporting the next generation of problem solvers.
