Help AUSOMETECH Students Visit MIT Robotics Lab

Help AusomeTech Students Reach for the Stars at MIT Robotics Lab!

Dear Supporters,

We are reaching out to you with an incredible opportunity for our AusomeTech students! We've been invited to tour the Robotics Lab at MIT in Boston, an experience that could be life-changing for our young adults with autism.

Our students have a passion for technology and have honed their skills thanks to the incredible resources provided by the Scratch team and the Robotics team at MIT. Now, they have the chance to see cutting-edge technology in action and meet experts who share and support their enthusiasm.

However, there's one obstacle: our students cannot travel independently due to their autism. Providing transportation for our students and families is critical to their participation. Without it, students on the autism spectrum are often unable to access events and opportunities in - and especially outside of their communities.

That's why we are turning to you for help. We need assistance covering the costs of overnight hotel stays, travel expenses, and meals for our students and their accompanying parents and supervising interns. Our trip is scheduled for the end of April 2024.

Your donation will not only make this trip possible but will also open doors of opportunity for our students. By supporting us, you're empowering these young adults to pursue their passions, explore new horizons, and reach for the stars.

Every contribution, no matter how big or small, will make a difference in the lives of our AusomeTech students. Together, let's make this dream trip a reality and show the world what our amazing students can achieve!

Thank you - for your generosity and support.

Any surplus of funds will be used to support AusomeTech events and technology needs.
