WHAT IS FIRST?
FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) is an organization whose mission is to inspire young people to pursue further studies and careers in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and math. Their vision is of a world which celebrates success in these fields, and in which young people dream of becoming science and technology heroes. They pursue their mission primarily through running robotics competitions for school-aged students at the elementary, junior high school, and senior high school levels.
WHY SPONSOR?
The support of our sponsors and community are crucial to the existence and success of The Alpha Dogs. Our program helps to spread STEM education to our community, with our team currently participating in events such as visits to local schools, and presentations/demonstrations at events hosted by our school. We give students the opportunity to discover an interest in STEM fields that can help them to choose post-secondary education that suits their interests. We also give students a place to work with like minded individuals on problems similar to what they could face out in the workplace. For students outside of our team, we still try to reach out and educate them in STEM fields. We do this by running activities such as the Humberview community FIRST Lego League team for students in grade 5-8 and multiple FIRST Tech Challenge teams both in and out of the classroom. With this, students will have a better idea of what interest them as they enter high school and beyond.
