Your donation powers Indiana’s brightest, young robotics minds from the Indiana Robotics State Championship to the VEX Worlds stage in Dallas, TX!
This Giving Tuesday, help us make dreams come true for Indiana teams who qualify for both the nation's largest robotics state championship and VEX Worlds! All donations will go directly toward making the March 2025 event a reality for our students as well as supporting the travel costs of those who qualify for Worlds.
This year we have TWO reasons to give:
Behind the Scenes Magic: In 49 states, it's just robotics, but this is Indiana! Help fuel the magic of our Indiana Robotics State Championship as we move to the Indiana State Fairgrounds. Your contribution supports essential event costs—materials, meals, logistics and more—ensuring an unforgettable experience for our robotics teams!Support Travel to Worlds: Within a month of qualifying for Worlds, Indiana robotics teams must raise $1,800 for registration plus travel and accommodations for Dallas, TX. Help Indiana robotics teams reach the VEX Worlds Championship by easing their fundraising burden so they can focus on competing, not costs!
