Invest in the Future of South African Engineering! Help Team Fifth Order Get to the USA!
Meet the Hoërskool Waterkloof FTC Robotics Team 33568, "Fifth Order." This passionate team of Grade 12 students has been accepted to represent South Africa at an International Robotics Competition in the USA this April!
Their journey hasn't been easy. After minimal preparation time and overcoming the challenges of limited competition access during the pandemic, they fought their way to the international stage. Their dedication is undeniable.
However, despite their immense hard work, the team now faces a funding shortfall. The school does not have the budget available to support their travel and competition costs.
This isn't just a trip; it's an investment in future South African leaders in technology, engineering, and innovation. Supporting this team will help them build invaluable skills and profiles for their future university acceptance and careers.
We are calling on our community and corporate sponsors to help us bridge this funding gap.
Our goal is R440,000. This funding will cover:
✈️ Flights
🏨 Accommodation
🤖 Competition Registration & Logistics
Please sponsor these young trailblazers!
