About this fundraiser

Who is GRAFFITI?

We are GRAFFITI, Greendale High School’s FIRST Robotics Competition team!

GRAFFITI stands for Greendale Robotics Advocating for FIRST and Inspiring Tomorrow’s Innovators. GRAFFITI is not just our name but also our mission statement, which shows our dedication to spreading FIRST and robotics in our community.

In 2022, GRAFFITI had a more successful rookie FIRST Robotics Competition season than any of us could have imagined, winning:

Milwaukee Regional Rookie All-Star Award
Seven Rivers Regional Engineering Inspiration Award
Rookie All-Star Award in our division at the FIRST Championship in Houston, TX

In addition to our robot, we shared STEM with our community, including mentoring Greendale Schools’ FIRST LEGO League teams, doing robotics read-alouds, making bilingual STEM kits for elementary students, and demoing our robot at local events. This year we are leading the student planning committee for the Wisconsin FIRST Advocacy Day advocating for increased robotics funding.

This season, we hope to repeat our success and continue to expand our team, which is already at 23 members and counting!

Robots are Expensive!

Our budget this year is $27,000. You might wonder what we spend all of that money on! It costs us almost $10,000 just to register for the season, tournaments, and scrimmages. And, last year it cost about $7500 to build our competition robot. Did you know that every season presents a brand new robot game and we have to start from scratch to build a new robot in about 8 weeks?

We hope you will consider donating to help us on our mission. We can't wait to show off our hard work at competitions, and hope to see your name or company logo proudly displayed on our website, robot, uniforms, or pit!

Visit our website at https://graffitirobotics.org/ to learn more about our team! You can make donations online through our Classmunity site or to donate without service fees, you can send a check made payable to “Greendale School District” with “Robotics” in the memo line to: Greendale High School, Attn: Jerad Galante, Athletics/Activities Director, 6801 Southway, Greendale, WI 53129.

You can reach us with any questions at ghs.robotics@greendaleschools.org
