Gracious Professionalism in Hand, Heart, and Mind

Send EagleBots to the World Championship

Our students earned the Inspire Award at the Iowa FIRSTĀ® Tech Challenge Championship, the highest honor awarded at the state level. This award recognizes the team that best represents the full FIRSTĀ® experience: engineering excellence, innovation, teamwork, and community impact.

Because of this achievement, EagleBots has qualified to compete at the FIRSTĀ® Championship, where the top robotics teams from around the world gather to compete and collaborate.

Now our team has the chance to represent our community on the world stage.

But we need your help to get there..

What Your Support Makes Possible

The Problem

Traveling to the FIRSTĀ® Championship means transporting students, mentors, and a competition robot more than 1,000 miles to Houston, Texas.

The Solution

Your support helps cover the real costs of making this opportunity possible.

Your donation helps fund:
• Transportation for students, mentors, and equipment
• Hotel accommodations during the championship
• Robot parts, tools, and engineering materials
• Competition registration and pit setup
• Meals and logistics for the team

These are not just travel costs.

They are the investment that allows students to experience real engineering, real competition, and real career inspiration.


Meet the Students You're Supporting

EagleBots Team 13532 is a student-led robotics team and 4-H club based in Johnson County, Iowa.
Our team brings together students from seven different schools and homeschool backgrounds, giving young people access to advanced STEM opportunities that might not otherwise exist in their schools.

Through robotics, students learn:

• Engineering design
• Computer programming
• Electronics and mechanical systems
• CAD and 3-D printing
• Team leadership and project management

Students don’t just build robots.

They build confidence, resilience, and real-world problem solving skills.
