The Columbus Space Program FIRST robotics team (FRC4188) has qualified for the 2026 FIRST World's Competition in Houston, TX! This fundraiser is critical to help cover the costs of competing at the 2026 World’s competition later this month. Your donations will help fund travel, lodging, food, and other expenses to send 39 students from the Muscogee County School District to compete with teams from all over the world.

First launched in 2012, our team is part of the FIRST Robotics community. At the State competition this month, our team won and are qualified for the FIRST Worlds Championship in an unprecedented three areas:

We need your help ensuring our students can afford to participate in the World’s competition, where they will hone their science, engineering, and technology skills, and as we build an inclusive STEM community. This is your opportunity to help us fulfill our dream of competing alongside and learning from our peers from all around the world.

Please note: We are a 501c3 organization, and donations can be taken as a charitable deduction. Please check to see if your company will match donations.

Any remaining funds from this event pay forward to support the team in summer and fall competitions/activities. Thank you for your support!
