Skunk Works mission is to inspire students to excel as robotics and engineering professionals\, and to help them prepare for college and the future. \nIn addition\, our mentors coach them on how to conduct themselves with grace and professionalism\, and to be supportive of each other and the broader FIRST community. Skunk Works is supported by King County 4-H and the Highline School District. Robotics is our theme and passion! \nSkunk Works was founded in 2006 and has been deeply involved in the surrounding communities for the past 17 years. In the past\, we have brought our robots to elementary schools throughout our district to spark interest in and promote robotics. We’ve partnered with organizations such as the Boy Scouts\, the Boys and Girls Club\, the King County Library System\, and local school districts to run STEM day-camps and after-school programs. Team representatives have also met with local\, state\, and federal lawmakers and officials to lobby for increased funding for STEM education. In addition\, we have helped start new teams at several schools. \nOver the last three years\, we have been severely impacted by the pandemic\, which has significantly reduced the number of participants and revenue streams. It also limited our ability to do outreach\, encourage participation\, partner with local businesses\, and hold fundraisers. In 2022\, our team suffered a break-in at our facility\, which resulted in the theft of thousands of dollars of critical equipment that is vital to our team’s success. However\, we are resilient and are rebuilding a strong team\, with over 30 enthusiastic students and 16 active mentors. We are excited for this year’s robot build season\, which is currently underway! \nMore info at https://skunkworks1983.com. \nIf you have any questions\, please contact auction@skunkworks1983.com. \n“Thank you for supporting our hard-working students!” \nEDITOR’S NOTE: Since South King Media’s inception in 2007\, we have provided tens of thousands of dollars worth of FREE promotional and marketing services to local nonprofits and organizations. If you’re part of a nonprofit and have a fundraiser event or other news\, please email details to scott@southkingmedia.com. Thanks! \n\n\n	Related
