Sponsors

Built with industry.

Partner with Team 8029 to put materials, fabrication, funding, or technical expertise directly into student-led engineering.

Why sponsor

Support that reaches past our own roster.

  • Workforce development

    Students leave with hands-on experience in CAD, machining, wiring, and software: skills that feed engineering and manufacturing pipelines.

  • STEM education

    Support reaches beyond our roster: we mentor five FTC teams and the school robotics club.

  • Community impact

    Outreach work puts engineering in front of students who would not otherwise encounter it.

  • Brand visibility

    Partner recognition on the team website, and at competitions and community events.

Steel Bronco Robotics is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Contributions are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.

In-kind support

Most of what powers our shop arrives as in-kind support.

Cash sponsorship keeps the team running, but the bulk of what we build with (cut, machined, and shipped) comes directly from partners donating materials, fabrication, and expertise rather than a check.
