Building a Better Future for Honduran Children

Lego Mindstorms has taught us how to coexist with the world in the best possible way. In this case, through the Earth Allies challenge—an initiative that seeks to raise awareness about the relationship between people and the planet, and how our actions can contribute positively to its well-being and conservation.

The Annual Robotics Competition was held in Yamaranguila on October 17th of this year, where six teams competed for the top three places.

Teams are prepared in advance to take on the challenge presented to them. With a laptop or tablet and a bit of imagination, they program a robot using code, designed to help them analyze how robots can contribute to better coexistence with the Earth.

The Robotics Competition was a great success. The local mayors’ association once again took part in the competition, promoting innovation, creativity, and technological learning in the region. They play a fundamental role in organizing and carrying out the event, ensuring efficiency in the different stages of the competition process and encouraging active participation from students and communities.

Special Visit

This year, we were honored by the visit of Shoulder to Shoulder’s president, Richard Buten, and Executive Director Laura Manship, who joined us for this annual robotics event. Both recognized the performance of the teams in the competition, reaffirming their commitment to continue supporting more young people through the expansion of educational equipment.
