Support Obsidian

Invest in the next generation of women in engineering. Your support helps our all-girls FTC Team 27859 design, build, compete, and develop the skills and confidence to lead in STEM.

Our Supporters

Behind every successful robotics program is a community that believes in its students. We are grateful to the families, businesses, and organizations whose generosity has helped Team 27859 grow through engineering, competition, mentorship, and STEM education. Their support has made opportunities possible that extend far beyond the competition field.

Looking Ahead to a New Season

We are excited to begin another year of outreach, innovation, and community engagement as Obsidian. This season, we hope to expand our STEM initiatives, introduce more students to hands-on engineering, and create meaningful opportunities for young women to explore their potential in technology.

We look forward to welcoming new supporters who share our commitment to education, opportunity, and the next generation of engineers. Every contribution helps us move that mission forward.

Previous Program Sponsors & Donors

We proudly recognize the organizations and individuals who supported the previous Team 27859 program. Their contributions helped establish a strong foundation of engineering, competitive robotics, mentorship, and community involvement that Obsidian is honored to carry forward.

Why Donate?

Your contribution supports more than a competition robot. It gives young women the opportunity to solve real engineering problems, take ownership of ambitious projects, learn from setbacks, and inspire other students to pursue STEM. Every donation helps turn curiosity into experience and experience into lasting achievement.

Build & Improve Our Robot

Support the motors, sensors, electronics, and fabrication materials we use to prototype, test, and improve our robot. Every iteration gives our students the opportunity to apply engineering principles to real challenges.

Compete & Grow

Help cover competition registration, transportation, and essential equipment so our students can put their engineering skills to the test, collaborate under pressure, and grow through experience.

Outreach & Education

Make robotics demonstrations, coding workshops, and hands-on STEM learning more accessible to younger students. By sharing our knowledge, we hope to encourage the next generation to explore engineering and technology.

Empower Girls in STEM

Give young women hands-on responsibility for programming, CAD, mechanical design, strategy, teamwork, and leadership. Your support helps students develop the confidence to pursue their ambitions in STEM.

Building on a Strong Foundation

Obsidian begins a new chapter as Team 27859's all-girls robotics team. We carry forward the previous program's commitment to technical development, competition, mentorship, and community education while creating new opportunities for girls to grow as engineers, innovators, and leaders.

How Much?

Every donation makes a difference. Whether you help purchase a small component or contribute toward competition expenses, your support gives our students more opportunities to design, experiment, learn, and improve. No contribution is too small to make a meaningful impact.

$10

Helps cover wiring, connectors, fasteners, and other everyday prototyping supplies.

$50

Contributes toward motors, servos, sensors, and essential mechanical components.

$100

Supports larger engineering purchases, design iterations, and outreach materials.

$200

Helps fund robot systems, competition expenses, and STEM education opportunities.

These examples are illustrative; donations support the team's current priorities.

Help Us Build What Comes Next

Every great innovation begins with an opportunity to learn, experiment, and believe in what is possible. Your support gives young women the resources to transform curiosity into technical expertise, challenges into achievements, and ambitions into meaningful futures. Together, we can inspire the engineers and leaders of tomorrow.
