FRC Community helping other Non-profits

[lynca]

The FIRST Community is an amazing group of people!
I'm interested to learn about other non-profit organizations from the FRC community.

Here are a few that I support.

Kiva.org (http://www.kiva.org/) - micro lending site - FIRST Robotics lending team (http://www.kiva.org/team/first_robotics) (Join us ! )

DonorsChoose.org (http://www.donorschoose.org/) - raising money for classroom projects

Kickstarter (https://www.kickstarter.com/) & GoFundMe (http://www.gofundme.com/)- crowdfunding projects (it is a mix of non-profit and profit organizations)

Khan Academy (https://www.khanacademy.org/) - an amazing resource for online education

Here is a list of popular non-profit organization websites.

Found a couple more organizations that are great combination with FIRST

1. Maker Faire (http://makerfaire.com/) (not a non-profit but promotes the right message)
2. TEDx Events (https://www.ted.com/about/programs-initiatives/tedx-program) - great way to present to the community
3. Join the FIRST FreeRice team (http://freerice.com/content-group/first-robotics) !
