A robotics team from Metropolitan Ministries in Tampa is celebrating their successful robotics competition season.

The teens are part of the first robotics team in Metropolitan Ministries and the only team in Florida from a transitional housing facility.

The team called “Coding Hope” placed 86th out of 175 teams in Florida in the FIRST Robotics competition season.

The team was launched in the hopes to drive passion for studies in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math among the homeless teens.

The program was funded with the help of a $15,000 contribution from AT&T as well as donations from other organizations.
