About
FIRST Robotics Competition Team 980 ThunderBots is a 501(c)(3) public charity and competitive robotics team with the mission of inspiring young people to become science, technology, and business leaders.
Dedicated mentors and sponsors work with high school age students from Burbank Unified School District on a robotics challenge set by the FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition in Science and Technology) organization in which we compete. Team 980 is also the perfect environment to develop important non-technical skills in logistics, marketing, graphic design, communications, finance and business practices. Ultimately, we encourage growth in creativity, problem-solving, strategy, leadership, initiative and teamwork.
Partnering with the BUSD NAF Academies, Team 980 is located in the STEAM lab at Burbank High School, welcoming students from both Burbank high schools as well as 8th graders from the middle schools. We provide real world experience in programming, electronics, machining, construction, mechanical design, business practices, and outreach. Any students with the passion to learn, a drive to create, and a competitive spirit are welcome to join.
What I’m Raising Money For
Running a successful FRC program isn't cheap. All of our mentors are volunteers, but materials and specialized components cost money, as do CAD computers for our Robot Design group and tools of all sizes for our Fabrication and Assembly areas. Your contribution will help us design and build the best possible competition robot while training our students in the fundamentals of Robotics.
Why You Should Give
In the past, Team 980 has relied on corporate sponsors for the majority of our revenue, but those sponsorships are no longer adequate to cover all our expenses. With this campaign, we are asking our students to share with their family and friends why being on Team 980 is important to them and how it will help them achieve their future goals.
