We are all saddened by the loss of the crew of the Columbia. I heard on the news that a group raised one million dollars to place into a trust for the children of the Challenger astronauts.
Would it be appropriate for F.I.R.S.T. teams to collect donations to be turned over to a group doing the same for the children of the Columbia astronauts?
If each team brought a check to the regionals from their community we could not only honor the memory of the crew but also further the FIRST and NASA goals to place a high priority on the advancement of science and technology.
What are your thoughts?
