Being at the end of the competition season with only World Championships ahead, many teams who have qualified through hard work and dedication are struggling to acquire the additional funding necessary to attend and compete on the global stage.

Sending a team halfway across the country along with food and board is expensive, and there is nothing more heart-wrenching to tell a team than that despite doing everything they could, working hard for the last four months, and surpassing the skill-based barrier, they need to decline due to insufficient funds and lack of fundraising abilities.

Our initial goal is to assist in bringing FRC Team 4513: The Circuit Breakers, to the World Championships hosted in Houston, Texas. If we surpass our goal, the additional funding will be used in the future for additional financial aid for more PNW teams in need of funding.

Please help teams represent their schools and prove to their students that anything is possible with enough passion, dedication, and hard work.
