Teams must be part of a registered VRC or VEX U team for the current season.

• Only one entry per team is permitted. However, each team in a multi-team school or club program may submit one entry. For example, teams 123A and 123B could each submit an entry, but team 123A could not submit two entries. Entries must vary in content and presentation to be considered separate entries. 
• Entries submitted in previous years’ Online Challenges are not eligible for submission this year.

The REC Foundation and Google will recognize a total of ten (10) winners chosen from all submissions for this challenge, which may include entries and winners from both VRC and VEX U teams. Each winning team will receive: 

• Paid team registration for this season's VEX Robotics World Championship

Show us how you’re helping your community. Your video should highlight the ways your team uses its knowledge and resources to make a meaningful and positive impact on your community. We want to see how you use the skills you’ve gained in VEX Robotics competitions to solve problems or fill needs in the world around you.

Things to keep in mind for a successful submission:

• What skills, knowledge, and resources does your team share with the community? Are they skills you gained from participating in robotics?
• What has your team done to address a challenge or problem in your community?
• Who are the community members that your team supports, and why did you choose to support them?
• What meaningful impact has your team made on your school, town, or community?
