Taking the next steps on a project that FTC Team TOXIC began, the Amazzi team worked all summer to organize ten sets of Lego Education Kits that would build things like a windmill, a clock, a pulley, and a lever.  This will help the kids in their STEM education in Uganda.  The team also developed an introduction video to introduce themselves and show them how to build the models.  Kuyamba sent luggage full of supplies along with these kits to our team in Gaba, Uganda.  Kits arrived in Uganda on September 1st thanks to help from our friends at Sozo Children.  Thank you also to Play Well Africa for helping transport some items for these kits.  

Team TOXIC Brings Robotics to Uganda!

The robotics team that Tyler is a part of, Team TOXIC, did an outreach to Uganda recently by sending robotics kits to kids in Gaba, to be used in the school.  Team TOXIC plans to grow this outreach over the coming years as they try to bring a beginning STEM education to the kids there. As you can see from the pictures, they are having so much fun with this new experience!  A huge thank you to Team TOXIC for your outreach!    

Parkside Elementary Donates Items!

​3rd Graders at Parkside Elementary School showed generosity by donating and collection items for the children in Uganda.  Dave and I got to go visit with the kids at Parkside, share about the needs in Uganda and answer their great questions.  The students worked on this project as part of their unit on Generosity.  Thank you Parkside!
