About Us

FIRST^® is a global robotics community preparing young people for the future. We are the world's leading youth-serving nonprofit advancing STEM education. FIRST inspires young people to be science and technology leaders and innovators by engaging them in exciting mentor-based programs that build science, engineering, and technology skills, that inspire innovation, and that foster well-rounded life capabilities including self-confidence, communication, and leadership.

FIRST volunteers work side by side with FIRST participants, inspiring them to use their skills to make a positive impact on their communities and the world. If you’re looking for a fast-paced, thrilling, and inspiring environment to make a difference, there’s a spot for you as a FIRST volunteer!
