About this event

Charity & Causes • Education

In today’s rapidly evolving job market, access to high-quality STEM education is more important than ever—especially for students from underserved communities. At the Queen City Robotics Alliance (QCRA), we are dedicated to bridging that gap through the power of hands-on robotics education.

We invite you to be part of our mission by attending this Hops & Bots Fundraiser at NoDa Brewing Company.


What to Expect:

  • Networking with STEM professionals and community leaders (bring your business cards!)
  • Student-led robot demonstrations
  • Brief, inspiring presentations from QCRA staff and students
  • Craft beer and delicious bites from one of Charlotte’s top brewmeisters


Why It Matters:

Through FIRST Robotics, NASA Space App Challenge, QCRA coding camps and more students learn coding, engineering, and critical thinking while gaining mentorship from industry professionals. These experiences open doors to college scholarships, internships, and career opportunities they might not otherwise access.


Your Support Powers Their Success

Proceeds from this fundraiser will help us provide:

  • Sponsorships for students in need
  • Robotics kits, tools, and technology
  • Travel assistance for regional and national competitions
  • Mentorship and career development programs
