Igniting curiosity and fostering a passion for STEM
With Power to Educate, students discover limitless opportunities through our robotics programs. We support For Inspiration & Recognition of Science & Technology (FIRST) teams and competitions for K-12 students, along with other robotics programs, across Florida.
“I wouldn’t be at the career that I’m at now without FIRST robotics and without FPL’s involvement in FIRST robotics, so I want to continue that for the students who are a part of the program now. I want them to know that anything is possible if they want to go for something, they can get it.”
-- Lily Pawlik, FPL Engineering Mentor
“Every season brings on an exciting new theme and continues to empower students to embrace discovery, innovation and collaboration.”
-- Sandra Contreras, FIRST South Florida Regional Director
