Frandowment Competition

We awarded a fee-free franchise to one deserving winner!

Business ownership is a dream for many. Owning an awesome robot-building enrichment business is even more of dream. But all too often, the financial hurdles to ownership are too difficult to overcome, especially for those who suffer from discrimination or inequity.

We held the Frandowment Competition to break down that barrier for one deserving winner. The winner was awarded a Brooklyn Robot Foundry franchise, free of the initial franchise fee, the initial inventory cost, and all other fees for the first year!
