Do u know of any big corprate sponsors that would be willing to sponsor a high school robotics team?

Question

I'm a member of The Mojave Desert robotics Team 1641 and we are searching for corprate sponsors. We are a F.I.R.S.T. (For Insperation and Recognition of Science and Technology ) Team that builds and competes with robots all around the world. We are a small team living in a small community. We have in the past only had enough money to attend one regional competition because of lack of funds. We are a non-profit organization. We don't just rely on sponsors to get our funding but we also are non-stop fundraising. We need a major sponsor so that we can construct a better robot and compete in more FIRST Robotics Competitions. If you know of any corperations that would be willing to sponsor us please let me know... We are in desperate need of a major sponsor.

Thanks,

The Mojave Desert Robotics Team 1641

Answer 2

Read the news and google robotics. Find the companies that are actively working with them, there was a few in the news recently based in Japan, but have branches here in the US and write them seeing if they would sponsor. Cheap advertising for them and good PR. Next write those companies that are on the edge of tech, and every fortune 500 company. Local as in large state companies would also be on the top of the list, again the good PR and what is a few grand to them compared to the return? Start writing and I am sure you will find something in a short amount of time. And best of luck in the competitions
