Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Today is all about green, but get ready to go blue tomorrow! Giving Blueday, the University’s 24-hour fundraiser, is tomorrow, and we need your support!

Your donation will help power the upcoming Solar Trek: a 12-day trip across the United States in May, during which our team will visit sponsors, connect with other solar car teams, and inspire the next generation through sustainability education at science centers.

We’re also raising funds to get ready for the build cycle of our 2027 car, which will compete in the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge.

Donate here on March 18th: https://www.givecampus.com/schools/UniversityofMichigan/giving-blueday-2026/pages/student-organizations/solar-car

Today, we welcomed visitors from Towsley Children’s House! Our team loved showing them Millennium and answering questions as they learn about velocity in their lessons. Always exciting to meet future Wolverines! 💛💙

After an exciting year, celebrating our team’s 35th anniversary with alumni and our community, we’ve had a successful recruiting cycle with members who are hard at work on our new car. We’re very proud of the progress the team has made in the last few months and can’t wait to share more details in the upcoming year!
