Sponsors

Built with industry.

Why sponsor

Support that reaches past our own roster.

  • Workforce development

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

  • STEM education

    Support reaches beyond our roster: we mentor four 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.

  • Machining and tooling
  • Raw materials
  • Software licences

Build the future with us.

Every partnership — cash, materials, or fabrication time — goes straight into the robot and the students building it. Tell us what you can offer and we will tell you exactly where it goes.
