We are fundraising here to get us to the Global competition and are asking for your help and support!

Our team, The Weapon-Wielding Dragicorns, took first place in regional and state championships this year and we are invited to Knoxville, TN to compete at the Global level May 24th to the 27th.

However, we can't compete at Globals this year- not without your help. It turns out, the cost of Creativity is high and our funds are low! We are fundraising in order to cover the costs of travel, lodging, shipping our solution project across the country, entry fees, and any other costs we may incur on this grand adventure.

No amount is too small!
Donate until May 19, 2017!

Please ask, and share our page with, friends, family, colleagues, and neighbors to help us continue to create and innovate.

Destination Imagination (DI) is a non-profit organization that challenges students to solve problems in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) and other subjects in creative and collaborative ways. DI teaches the creative process: from Imagination to Innovation. Challenges incorporate STEM as a pathway for students to be curious, to create, and to think and figure things out as independent problem solvers. Globals include 8,000+ students, 17,000+ attendees, 17 countries, 544 volunteers and limitless creativity in Knoxville, TN at the University of Tennessee: Knoxville.
