GRANT PROPOSAL - HORIZON HONORS ROBOTICS
This Artifact came to be as a real world grant proposal intended to support the Lego robotics team I founded at my daughter's school to fill a gap in STEM education. The founding was easy but the aquiring of needed monetary and material resources proved to be challenging. I was able to find a few purpose built grants from ASU and a donation of computers from a local provider but to make the program a long term success, higher value grants and proposals were designed from coursework in TWC 543 and specific groups were targeted for their existing grant programs and framework. This proposal has been accepted by the Rotary Club and we are waiting on a check.
