We have partnered with Canadian charity, Just Cause Education Outreach (@justcausecanada) for this event. This STEM education focussed charity has developed a robotics program in Uganda, Africa called the "Ugandan Robotics League" (aka the URL), and this event will be supporting their 2025 championship tournament in Jinja, Uganda. A robotics parts and computer/tablet tech drive will be taking place at No Way Snow Day as well. The items collected will be brought over in March to the Ugandan youth teams. We welcome any VEX EDR, V5, VEX IQ (any gen) parts donations as well as LEGO robotics and past game elements from any competition your team has been involved with. Please conact us for more information or if you or your team would like to become an overseas volunteer!
