The Locus Robotics Foundation®
An organization dedicated to expanding opportunities for underserved youth through education, mentorship, and experiences. We believe that with the right support and guidance, all young people have the potential for future success.
Helping Young People See What’s Possible
The Locus Robotics Foundation® grew from a simple belief: talent and potential are everywhere, but access to opportunity is not. Rooted in our commitment to inclusion and community, the Foundation was created to help more young people see what is possible and develop the skills and confidence to pursue it.
Through academic preparation, mentorship, work-study opportunities, and hands-on learning, the Foundation supports programs that help middle and high school students stay engaged in their education, prepare for graduation, and explore the paths available after high school, including college, the skilled trades, apprenticeships, public service, and technology. These experiences give students a clearer view of their options and the support to take their next step.
“We’ve always believed that talent and potential are everywhere, but people can only pursue opportunities that they know exist. The Locus Robotics Foundation® is about helping make those connections, especially for young people who may not otherwise be exposed to the full range of possibilities available to them. Whether that path leads to college, the trades, an apprenticeship, public service, technology, or something they haven’t imagined yet, we want to help open that window and give them the opportunity to see what’s possible.”
