As a non-profit, student-run organization, we rely almost entirely on industry sponsors. Past partners have supported us through direct funding, discounted products and services, and donation of parts and raw materials. We strive to create personal and enduring relationships with our sponsors, giving back equally as much as we take. Without our sponsors and the support of our community, we would not be where we are today.
If you are interested in collaborating with us, please don’t hesitate to reach out, we’d love to work with you!
