Berkeley High School Robotics - FRC Teams 5419 & 5499

Berkelium 5419 is a student-led robotics team from Berkeley High School with 110+ students committed to making STEM education accessible to everyone. We design and build competition robots, mentor middle school students, and run free community robotics programs – all while charging zero membership fees. Here's the problem: Attending competitions costs hundreds of dollars per student. Many families in our community can't afford that. So we're raising $20,000 to provide full scholarships , ensuring every student – regardless of financial situation –has the chance to compete, learn, and build memories with their team. Our track record speaks for itself: 100% of our graduates attend four-year colleges, 90% pursue STEM degrees , and 50% of our team members are from historically underrepresented groups in STEM. Every donation is half-matched, doubling your impact. All donations are tax-deductible through our fiscal sponsor, BARESA (501(c)(3)). Help us prove that excellence and accessibility go hand in hand. Support the next generation of engineers, problem-solvers, and leaders.
