Robin K Fund
Robin J Kennedy-Kiel, one of Maine's beloved science educators, passed away on February 8th, 2018 following a courageous battle with cancer. Robin's passion was infectious, and she taught thousands of students about the wondrous fields of science and space. An energetic and dedicated teacher, she inspired her students and fellow teachers alike to not only fall in love with science but to be the best version of themselves. Her strength and compassion have left an undeniable mark on so many of her students and friends.
Robin was a firm believer in the power of hands-on learning and the opportunities STEM-based camps provide for our youth. Her family has started a scholarship fund in Robin’s name - The Robin K Fund Scholarship. Our first goal is to raise enough money for a perpetual scholarship fund in which students from Maine will be able to apply annually for funding to attend one of the STEM camps offered by Maine Robotics.
12/1/2022 - We have suspended taking new donations until we can transition this fund to a new investment account. If you have any questions, reach out to us at Maine Robotics, thanks.

The Robin K Fund will announce the process for applying for the scholarship and the amount being awarded for the year. The scholarship awardee may then use those funds to pay for, or help pay for one of Maine Robotics STEM camp programs.
Maine Robotics is done in collaboration with the University of Southern Maine
