Founded in 2013, the Society relies entirely on the amazing generosity of our forward-thinking sponsors and the countless hours put in by volunteers. Through these, we are able to support organizations all over Western Canada to deliver outstanding, fun and educational programs for students from Kindergarten to Grade 12.

The First Robotics Society helps co-ordinate all aspects of FIRST programming, including connecting students with local teams, finding mentors to help support those teams, providing educational resources to teams, and organizing FIRST top level robotics competitions for FIRST LEGO League Jr. (FLL Jr.), FIRST LEGO League (FLL), FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) and FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC).
