Gifll is a FIRST LEGO League team from Denmark. It was founded in 2019 with a diverse group of kids from mostly around Copenhagen. They have participated and done outstandingly in regional, national and international tournaments every year since then. They are amazing kids — with passion for playing and programming robots.
FIRST LEGO League is a global program for children ages 4-16 that introduces them to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) through fun, exciting hands-on learning. Each year, FLL teams focus on a specific real-world challenge and develop a solution using LEGO bricks, motors, sensors, and other materials. Teams also research and present their robot solutions to judges. This year’s challenge is “MASTERPIECE”, and our team, Gifll, has developed an app, “PORTFLLIO”, that allows kids (and others) to share their own art, or art they love with others.
In 2023 the team won the Championship prize and progressed from the regional tournament in Roskilde, to the Danish national tournament in Odense where they got the trophy for best robot design (design, testing and programming).
This means that they are invited to the First Championship (https://www.firstchampionship.org/) tournament in Houston in April 2024. We are trying to raise a total amount of approx. 100,000 DKK (15,000 USD) from sponsors to be able to compete in Houston and hope that companies might be interested in sponsoring some of our participation expenses, trip and activities for the kids. Any amount (2,000, 5,000, or more) of sponsorship you can provide would be invaluable in helping us achieve our dream for this opportunity.
