Mission
The purpose of The Dark Empire is to promote multi-generational fandom and appreciation of STAR WARS through acts of charity, and to encourage creative costuming as custom or canon characters representing the “dark side”, and “soldiers of fortune” including smugglers, pirates and bounty hunters (non-mandalorian) of the Star Wars universe.
So, what does that statement mean? There are really as many answers to that as there are members of The Dark Empire. We all join for our own reasons, but you will find most of us agree that we do it for others. Walking into a room at a hospital and seeing the smile that crosses those peoples faces (both adults and children) makes all the time, hard work, and effort more than worth it. For some it is about sharing their passion for a universe that strongly connected to them in their youth, and sharing that vision with others. No matter the reasons given by each of our members, we are all here to give back.

The R2 Builders Club, also known as the R2-D2 Builders Club, is an international online community focused on building full-scale replicas of the Star Wars astromech droid R2-D2. It's a collaborative effort where members share knowledge, resources, and skills to construct their own droids.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
- Focus: The primary goal is to build accurate, life-sized R2-D2 droids.
- Community: It's a loose, international group with members sharing information and skills through online forums and local groups.
- Resources: The club provides resources like templates, blueprints, and advice for builders, including information on electronics, 3D printing, and more.
- Local Groups: Members can connect with local R2 Builders groups, like the Houston Area Droid Builders (HADB, for in-person collaboration and support.
- Beyond R2-D2: While R2-D2 is the primary focus, members also build other droids from the Star Wars universe.
- Not for Profit: The club emphasizes the collaborative and hobbyist nature of the builds, with no sales of kits or completed droids.
