NASA FIRST Robotics Grants Available

NASA sponsorship grants are available for teams participating in the FIRST Robotics Competition. Three types of grants are available: Regional Challenge Grants, Program Growth Grants and Sustaining Grants.

These sponsorships are not tied to any particular competition event. The grants will provide $6,000 funding to cover the registration costs for a team to attend one Regional Competition event, along with a kit of parts.

Applications for this grant opportunity are due Nov. 2, 2009.
