Hello FLL Teams,

We are following up on the email we sent last week about the Sparky 384 LEGO drive to collect
gently used LEGOs for underserved schools in Virginia.  We will be putting together Jr.FLL kits with
these LEGO donations for teams that otherwise couldn't participate in FIRST.  

In addition to LEGO bricks and elements and old field set-up kits, we are looking for 15 x 15 inch
base plates.  We are in great need of these base plates, and would appreciate any that teams or
families are no longer using.

To participate in this LEGO drive, please send us an email and we'll work out the details.  Many thanks for helping us "spark" a lifelong interest in STEM in young children that may not have the opportunity otherwise.

Regards,
Sparky 384, FIRST Robotics Team
J.R. Tucker High School

Hello FLL Teams!


We are a FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) Team, from J.R Tucker High School in Richmond. Sparky 384 was the Virginia Regional Champion last year, and also the Engineering Inspiration Award Winner. We are hosting a FIRST LEGO Drive, to provide LEGOs to children in under-served communities in Virginia. Phase Two of this project, will be to provide LEGOs to children in Afghanistan through our troops stationed there. Please help us "spark" a life-long interest in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) in young students who might not otherwise have this opportunity.


We are collecting gently used LEGO elements and bricks to create Jr. FLL team kits. If your FLL team has LEGOs or any field set-up kits you are not using anymore, we would love to have your donations. Please e-mail us, at [log in to unmask], if you have any LEGOs you would like to donate.


Together we can "spark" the future of the world's youth into a fun-filled world of Science and Technology. 


Thank You.


Regards,
