Goal
Robotics and Engineering in Allegany County--Together, Inc. (REACT), a 501(c)3 educational nonprofit, is excited to announce that our building at 120 Fayette Street is under construction! We call it RISE--the REACT Institute for STEM Education. Did you know that REACT has overseen the growth of youth robotics in Allegany County from four teams to 30 teams, and the number of students served grew from 35 to over 800 in just five years? RISE will serve as the innovation hub for our hugely popular robotics programs, and it will enable REACT to develop great new coding and engineering events.
We have raised almost all of the building purchase and renovation funds through grants and large donations.
Now, REACT needs your help. Your generous donations will help us qualify for a second major Appalachian Regional Commission grant. Will you support the RISE project with a tax-deductible donation? Join us in making this dream a reality! Our goal is to raise another $45,000 by November 10. If we reach this goal, it will unlock a vital additional $100,000 in federal grant funding.
We are so close to having the needed funds to complete the renovations and equip RISE with the necessary tools and technology to foster creativity, collaboration, and hands-on learning! Together, we can create a vibrant environment where young minds can explore the wonders of robotics and STEM--where Allegany County children can be inspired and prepared for the jobs of the future.
