01 — Why sponsor us

Why sponsor us

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN 42-4248249), and all sponsorships are tax-deductible. Monetary support is our preferred method — it goes directly toward the goals below, and every sponsor gets brand visibility at local, state, and world-level competitions.

By sponsoring our team, you are directly investing in the next generation of engineers. We charge zero membership fees so that any motivated student can join, regardless of family income — that means we rely on sponsors like you to cover robot parts, event travel, tools, and registration fees.
