Thomas Jefferson Robotics Team seeking to raise $20,000 to compete in statewide competition

Thomas Jefferson High School’s Robotics Team is going big. As the only Richmond Public Schools entity to compete in the statewide FIRST Robotics Competition this year, the Tee Jay Robotics team needs to raise some funds to make competition a reality.

Richmond First District City Councilman Andreas Addison and School Board member Liz Doerr are helping to raise a collective $20,000 to fully equip the team, and you can help.

Donations are needed for high speed computers, uniforms, and transportation to and from competitions. To make a monetary donation, you can visit the Tee Jay Vikings Fund Donation Page and write TJHS Robotics in the memo. To inquire about in-kind donations (computers, uniforms, etc.) you can email edoerr@rvaschools.net.
