ROBOTICS EDUCATION & COMPETITION FOUNDATION
ROBOTICS EDUCATION & COMPETITION FOUNDATION
On many reservations across the U.S., STEM education is lacking or non-existent. Education that prepares students for the technological workforce is imperative to break the cycle of poverty. The REC Foundation currently partners with native groups in Arizona, Alaska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, and Wisconsin, but there is opportunity for expansion and inclusion of many more groups. REC Foundation is committed to supporting native communities who do not have access to the robust STEM resources benefitting many areas throughout the U.S. Indigenous Robotics
