Charities

Each year the Pi-oneers coordinate a food drive and volunteer to distribute and organize collected items for the Helping Hand Food Pantry. This year the Pi-oneers partnered with the school’s “Interact Club” and donated over 500 pounds of food to local food pantries. The robot “walks” side-by-side with Pi-oneers at the annual Pascack Valley “Relay for Life” event. Over the past 8 years, the team has raised more than $10,000 for the American Cancer Society. Additionally, in the 2018 “STEAM Ahead For the Holidays: a Toys for Tots Campaign”, the Pi-oneers collected over 100 STEAM themed toys in support of sponsor Picatinny Arsenal. In support of a Pi-oneers’ mission trip to communities in Jamaica, team members donated more than 50 pounds of toys and school supplies.
