Mission and Program Overview

Mission

To deliver Fun STEM programs and events that inspire Minnesota youth to build confidence, create opportunities and thrive as the next generation of innovators.

High Tech Kids is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that provides the infrastructure, training and events for more than 6,400 Minnesota students annually, in grades K - 12. Each year we manage the Minnesota FIRST LEGO League, FIRST Tech Challenge and FIRST LEGO League Junior programs. Through these STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Math) programs, we train, teach, and empower students and adult volunteers. Kids engage in 8 - 12 weeks of FUN team-based building, computer programming and research to solve real-world problems. In order to make responsible, informed decisions that affect us, our society and our environment, we must understand science and math. Our goals are to reach kids during critical and formative years to ensure their future opportunities in a technology-driven world; to engage populations under-represented in STEM; and to connect adults with students in their communities to foster our future innovators, leaders, collaborators and problem solvers.

IRS990ScheduleI/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0All grant applicants must submit an application form via Survey Monkey. Boston Scientific grant applicants provide an employee number which is verified with Boston Scientific. For our scholarship grants, we specify that teams must be composed of all girls, located in a rural or urban area, serve kids of color and/or low income students. Teams must register with FIRST and High Tech Kids in order to receive a grant. Once teams have paid all of their fees, we cut them a check for the amount they requested (typically the cost of a robot). Our grants are one-time only for a team and are meant to help with the initial start-up costs which can be a barrier for some teams.
