Dear Potential Sponsor,

FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) Team 5112 The Gongoliers, would be grateful to have you as a sponsor to assist us with our upcoming exciting robotics events. The Gongoliers are from Ponaganset High School, one of only four FRC teams in Rhode Island. Team 5112 seeks to design accessible, innovative programs that motivate young people to pursue education and career opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and math, while building self-confidence, knowledge, and life skills.

This is The Gongoliers’ eleventh year participating in FRC and we are expecting an exceptional season. In previous seasons we were fortunate enough to receive the Impact Award at the Western New England Event, Engineering Inspiration Award at the Rhode Island District Event, and to be a member of the event-winning alliance at the New England District Championship. Our team also has many honors from previous years that we are proud to list on our home page.

The students from The Gongoliers are also going to be a part of the future workforce! In each FRC season, we have to construct a robot from scratch, involving programming and engineering, and use it in competitions that require troubleshooting and mechanical skills. We learn valuable skills from FRC and many of us intend to go into engineering based careers after we leave high school. Throughout the season, team members also learn and utilize public speaking and networking skills that will help them in their future professional development.

Your support would provide us with the financial aid that we need to be successful. With your assistance, our team would be able to afford parts for the robot, team shirts, pit construction, electronics, drivetrain components, team transportation, and advertising supplies.

In order to give you the best experience as our sponsor, we would do our best to advertise your company to its full potential. The Gongoliers have several different levels of sponsorship which are featured in the sponsorship commitment form at the bottom of this page. As our sponsor, your logo, company name, and sponsorship level would be displayed on our website. Please contact us at (thegongoliers@fgschools.com) or download the Gongoliers Sponsorship Brochure below. You can also view the brochure in book form by using this link Gongoliers Sponsorship Brochure.

We hope you consider being a part of our team!

Sincerely,

Team 5112, The Gongoliers
