Sponsors Companies & individuals
Every robot is paid for by people who believe in these students.
Robot parts, tools, and competition entry fees are funded entirely by sponsors and donors. There is no paid staff. Your support goes to the robot and the students who build it.
Your gift supports Hope Horizon's robotics pathway, from elementary school through the Churrobots.

01 Part of the Hope Horizon family
Hope Horizon East Palo Alto
Hope Horizon has been part of the ChurroBots since the first FIRST® LEGO® League team in 2014. Their mission to equip youth with life skills and leadership has helped the team grow on and off the field. We're proud to be part of their vision and grateful for their continued support.

02 Our sponsors
Thank you.
We're grateful to the companies that have supported the team, and to every individual donor, for fueling the team's innovation and growth.
03 Why sponsor
What your support actually buys.
A FIRST® Robotics Competition season has real costs: competition registration, motors, controllers, aluminum, batteries, tools, and travel. In 2024 the trip to the World Championship alone had a $40,000 fundraising goal.
Robot parts & tools
Everything from drivetrain motors to the machines in the workshop that students learn on.
Competition fees
Regional registration and, when the team qualifies, the World Championship.
Travel
Getting 20+ students, the robot, and the pit to events, including Houston in 2024.
Students who stay
Most ChurroBots will be the first in their families to go to college. Your support helps get them there.
Sponsorship
Put your name on the next robot.
Reach out to discuss sponsorship, in-kind donations of parts and machine time, or mentoring from your engineers.
