Mission
To inspire students to use their talents to be problem solvers while fostering teamwork. Mentors facilitate team development by focusing on quality, safety and gracious professionalism.

As stated on its FY2026 Form 990-EZ.

This is accomplished through the design and construction of robots capable of competing in FRC (FIRST Robotics Challenge), FTC (FIRST Tech Challenge) and FLL (FIRST LEGO League) tournaments. During the filing year, 35 FRC, 32 FTC and 18 FLL students were guided by teams of mentors during the tournament season.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2025 to 2026, from $27k to $59k (+115%).
How it's funded, over time
