We are team #9049 – The Robopuffs! But we’re more than a name or a number. We are a family, bonded through blood, sweat, and tears– through the countless hours of connecting with the community– through a life of FIRST. Just as FIRST set us up for success, we’ve always sought to provide women and youth the same love of S.T.E.M. we possess. As we take you through our journey as a team, you will learn through our eyes, you will teach others about the amazing program that binds us all, and most importantly, you will rise to the occasion as we change the world. 

Below is our mission to change the future of STEM, and our statement to the rest of the world:

“As a team, we strive to empower, encourage, and inspire women to rise to the occasion and bridge the gender gap in S.T.E.M.”

This is our mission. And, we are proud to present team 9049, for “We will strengthen the presence of women in S.T.E.M. in our community. One girl at a time.”
