IEA’s Annual Impact Fund is the cornerstone of giving and allows us to provide the best experience possible for gifted youth.
Make your impact by 12/31 and help us close the $250,000 funding gap and reach our annual goal!
Combining the excitement of sport with the rigors of science and technology, High-school student participants call it “the hardest fun you’ll ever have.” Under strict rules, limited resources, and an intense six-week time limit, teams of 20 or more students are challenged to raise funds, design a team “brand,” hone teamwork skills, and build and program industrial-size robots to play a difficult field game against like-minded competitors. It’s as close to real-world engineering as a student can get. Volunteer professional mentors lend their time and talents to guide each team. Each season ends with a FIRST Championship.
