FIRST has opened the 2026-2027 Boeing Team Grant for registered teams that have a Boeing employee mentor or retiree. The current official FIRST Team Grant Opportunities listing shows the application window running from August 24, 2026 through October 16, 2026.
Eligible applicants include U.S.-based FIRST LEGO League Explore, FIRST LEGO League Challenge, and FIRST Tech Challenge teams, plus U.S.-based and international FIRST Robotics Competition teams, provided the team has a Boeing employee mentor or retiree. Missouri teams may participate if they satisfy those sponsor requirements. FIRST states that grant availability and restrictions are determined by sponsor intent; the current public listing does not publish a fixed award amount, applicant cap, mandatory match, detailed cost schedule, submission cutoff time, or time zone.
The application is routed through FIRST’s official Team Grant Opportunities process. Applicants should use the live FIRST grant page and application portal as the controlling sources and should confirm team registration and the Boeing mentor/retiree relationship before applying.
Atlas analysis: Atlas Opportunity Score 68/100. N9+ Fit 0/100. QC Healthcare/other Dr. Miltie Fit 0/100. This is a legitimate Missouri school/youth STEM funding opportunity, but its purpose is FIRST robotics participation and team sustainability rather than healthcare, clinical services, telehealth, diagnostics, or health technology. Dr. Miltie, LLC is not a direct eligible applicant. Because the official listing provides a deadline date but no submission time or time zone, new applicant outreach remains blocked under the Atlas exact-deadline send gate.
