OUTREACH

The Thunder Kites bring together young innovators and dedicated engineers to collaborate and push ourselves even further alongside other enthusiastic and committed youth. Building on last year’s success, we are now seeking partners to help us continue growing. As the first active FTC robotics team in Spain after the pandemic, we are keenly aware of how privileged we are to offer students the chance to explore their interests. We trust that your support will help us take the accessibility of these opportunities to the next level.

1. Taking Participation to the Next Level: We primarily compete in the FIRST Tech Challenge, where we are the only post-pandemic team on mainland Spain. This means we must travel internationally to have the opportunity to participate. We are incredibly grateful to FTC Benelux for hosting us in the Netherlands. However, not all parents can afford the cost of sending their children on a multi-day trip abroad, so we need to alleviate the financial burden to ensure more students can access the competition experience.

2. Fostering a Local Competitive Robotics Scene: The lack of a competitive robotics scene in Spain limits our growth, and we can imagine this barrier being even more discouraging for students without access to a school robotics team. To make robotics more accessible, our goal is to one day organize our own competitions and, in the future, collaborate with others to establish and sustain an FTC robotics league in Spain.

1. Prominent placement of your company logo on our team uniforms, banners, website, and promotional materials.

2. Recognition of your support in our school newsletters and social media channels.

3. Acknowledgment during robotics events and competitions to fellow participants, parents, educators, and industry professionals.
