Today, I’m reaching out not just as a fellow Hivian (@minigunner) but as a proud parent whose son, @dovycola, is part of an amazing journey in STEM education. My son and his schoolmates are competing in the FIRST LEGO League (FLL)—an international robotics and innovation competition that inspires students to dream big and embrace the world of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
Their team is bursting with talent, creativity, and ambition, and they are ready to take their skills to the next level. But they need your support to get there.
For those who may not be familiar, FIRST LEGO League is one of the world’s most celebrated STEM competitions, designed to introduce kids to the joys of engineering, robotics, and collaborative problem-solving. Every year, thousands of teams from all over the globe participate, showcasing their ability to:
This year’s challenge is themed “Masterpiece” and focuses on exploring and innovating around the world of art, culture, and creativity. Teams are asked to combine their technical skills with imaginative thinking to design robots and create solutions that transform the way we experience art and creativity.
@dovycola’s team has big dreams! They are preparing for their regional #competition, with their sights set on qualifying for the National Championship. From there, the ultimate goal is to make it to the World Finals, where they can showcase their skills on a global stage alongside the brightest young minds from across the planet.
These kids are working hard—spending countless hours designing and programming their robot, brainstorming innovative ideas, and building team spirit. But like any great endeavor, they need resources to succeed.
To make their dream a reality, the team is looking to raise 200 HBD to fund custom team T-shirts. These shirts aren’t just about looking good; they serve a larger purpose:
Team Identity and Unity: Wearing matching T-shirts boosts morale and helps the team present themselves as a cohesive, professional unit.
Sponsor Recognition: The T-shirts will prominently feature the logos of their sponsors, including Hive and any dApps, games, or projects that step up to support them. This is a fantastic opportunity to promote Hive and its ecosystem to a wider audience, as competitions draw attention from parents, educators, and tech enthusiasts.
Inspiring Others: By showcasing Hive on their gear, the team can introduce the concept of #blockchain and decentralized technology to a completely new audience. Imagine Hive logos being seen by hundreds of people at regional, national, and even international events!
Sponsoring this team is about more than just T-shirts. It’s about helping a group of young, passionate students gain life-changing experiences. Through the FIRST LEGO League, these kids are not just learning technical skills—they’re developing critical thinking, leadership, teamwork, and the confidence to tackle real-world problems.
Your #support could help ignite a lifelong passion for STEM and innovation, creating future leaders, engineers, and problem-solvers. Plus, if they go all the way to the World Finals, your contribution will help Hive be represented on a global stage, introducing it to new audiences and spreading the message of Web3 innovation.
We are reaching out to the Hive community to raise 200 HBD. Any amount—big or small—will go a long way. Here’s how you can contribute:
By sponsoring the team, you’ll gain exposure in a unique way. FLL competitions attract educators, parents, and industry professionals—all of whom are potential adopters of blockchain technology. Your logo will be seen by a broad audience and associated with a positive cause: supporting education and innovation.
Additionally, as the team progresses through regional, national, and potentially world competitions, the visibility of your brand will grow. It’s a win-win!
Supporting these kids isn’t just about helping them win competitions—it’s about investing in their future and showing them that their community believes in their potential.
With your help, @dovycola’s team can proudly represent Hive, dApps, and blockchain innovation at every stage of their journey. Let’s show the world what the Hive community stands for: collaboration, creativity, and support for the next generation of innovators.
Thank you for considering this opportunity to make a difference. Together, we can help these young creators reach their full potential and take Hive to new heights!

We do have some extra funds on @poshtoken since one of our other onboarding initiatives we were planning doesn't seem to be happening. It wouldn't make much sense to promote the POSH token/logo however and since most of the rewards are generated from posts or delegations we'd much rather just recommend the hive logo or another "general" dapp to be promoted that supports the whole ecosystem/hive.
That would be amazing 🤩. Any bit of help is welcome 🙂
All of the best to your efforts for team. Robotics is the way to go.
We have also recently changed over from coding training for poor children, to robotics. A long story.

It's just so much more fun 😍 There is also Minecraft coding education that can be fun but Robotics is indeed best way to go 🙂
Thankfully we have a volunteer trainer, and he is a professional in the robotics field. The kids love it. !LOL
