Dear Friend,
FIRST® Robotics Canada (formerly known as Canadian Association for Student Robotics) was established in 2001 to meet the growing need for student robotics programs in Canada. FIRST Robotics Canada initially established a high school robotics program allowing teams from across Canada to compete annually in Toronto. Highly successful competitions have taken place in Toronto since 2002, and in 2005 an additional competition was added at the University of Waterloo.
Competing in FIRST competitions and building a robot is extremely rewarding for students and the entire school community. Last year, St. Joan of Arc's F.I.R.S.T Robotics Team ranked 7 out of 52 teams in the competition. There are significant costs, approximately $25,000, needed to operate a Robotics team. These include acquiring the equipment and technical resources needed to build a robot, competition entrance fees and travel costs.
Along with our teamwork and experience, sponsorship has allowed the Arc Angels to continue to participate in these events and to improve our past results. This year, we are introducing the Buy a Bolt campaign to help us achieve our goal of qualifying for the national championships in St. Louis.
Please find attached the specific details of our sponsorship program. We would greatly appreciate any financial assistance you, your business, or organization can provide. Non-financial support such as supplies or equipment is also greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to consider our request.
Together with your help, we will build our robot one bolt at a time!
Sincerely,
A. Berardi
Computer Engineering Teacher and Team Leader
