Every year, at the Championship and at FIRST events across the country and globally, we give FIRST participants the same challenge... “homework,” if you will. Go out and make FIRST loud! Talk about it with everyone you know. Shout about it at every opportunity. Let everyone you can know what a life-altering, game-changing, planet-awakening social and educational experience FIRST is. But despite constantly earning A’s on this assignment, and experiencing consistent yearly growth, FIRST has continued to operate under the radar of the general public. This year, however, we hit the jackpot. We couldn’t be more excited about the national and international attention FIRST has received from luminaries in government, the media, publishing, and the diverse world of popular entertainment. All of a sudden, it seems that FIRST has become, to borrow from author Neal Bascomb’s recent book title, the “new cool.” The national call for science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education in our schools is reaching a crescendo and FIRST is helping lead the chorus. Of course, those of us involved in our organization have believed this for decades. It just took a little time for the rest of the country to catch up! We are extremely grateful to an endless list of people from many fields who have embraced FIRST and lent their influence, time, and resources to help us pump up the excitement. For their passion and leadership, we recognize President Barack Obama, White House Dean Kamen Chief Technology Officer Aneesh Chopra, entertainment mogul will.i.am and The Black Eyed Peas, CNN’s Soledad O’Brien, Time Warner Cable’s NY1, Academy Award-winning actor Morgan Freeman, and countless others whose names you will see in this document. To all those who have shared their brilliance and vision with us, we thank you. And to the tens of thousands of Volunteers, Mentors, Coaches, teachers, parents, friends, and fans who make FIRST run and help it continue to grow, you have our sincere and humble gratitude. None of this would happen without you. You continue to inspire us all! The world’s educational, political, and business leaders have once again been reminded that the future belongs to the innovators: the young men and women now involved in the FIRST progression of programs. The U.S., in turn, must push harder for STEM education in our schools. This year, we recommit ourselves to work for the day when FIRST programs are available to everyone who dreams of developing the next generation of technological wonders.

Mission... to inspire young people to be science and technology leaders, by engaging them in exciting Mentor-based programs that build science, engineering, and technology skills, that inspire innovation, and that foster well-rounded life capabilities including self- confidence, communication, and leadership.

Impact… FIRST participants are 50 percent more likely to attend college, twice as likely to go on to major in science or engineering, and three times as likely to major specifically in engineering.
