Bits4Tots is a charity that seeks to bring a hands-on learning experience about making and robotics to kids who otherwise might not have the opportunity. A $25 donation buys a robot kit and a child’s participation in a bot-building workshop at Robot City, a robot store (that’s right, a robot store!) in Lakeview, IL.
