Thank you for supporting our journey to the FTC World Championship! Our team had an incredible experience - earning Innovate Award 3rd place and setting the division high score in the ROBOT game.

We’re incredibly grateful and because of your generous donations, we were able to make Iowa proud!

===============================================

Support Circuit Breakers on Our Road to Worlds!

For the first time in four years, FTC Team 10435 Circuit Breakers, a community based team, has qualified for the FIRST Tech Challenge World Championship! After winning 1st Place Control Award, winning our division, and earning the title of Finalist Alliance Captain at our Iowa State Championship out of 72 Iowan teams, we are proud to represent Iowa at this global competition in Houston.

However, making it to Worlds comes with significant costs—registration, travel, hotels, robot parts, and food—totaling to $14,000!

This is where we need your help! Every donation, no matter how small, brings us closer to competing on the world stage. Your support will help us continue our mission of innovation, teamwork, and STEM excellence.

If you believe in the power of robotics, education, and the next generation of engineers, please consider donating and sharing our campaign. Let’s make Iowa proud! ⚡️⚡️

Thank you for all your support!

NOTE: Circuit breakers is a community-based team of 10 members representing Grimes, Waukee, Urbandale, West Des Moines and Clive . Unfortunately, since we are community-based, we receive no funding from schools and must obtain 100% of our funding through grants, fundraising, and generous donations from our supporters (like you)!

Introduction:

Welcome to our funding page for the G.O.A.T. (Grand Order of Automation and Technogy) FTC Team! We're just a group of enthusiastic amateurs, fueled by curiosity and a passion for all things tech, who have taken on the exciting challenge of the First Tech Challenge (FTC). We're reaching out to you for support as we embark on this incredible journey into the world of robotics and technology.

Our Story:

G.O.A.T. was born from a shared love for tinkering, inventing, and dreaming big. We might not be experts, but what we lack in experience, we make up for with sheer enthusiasm and a willingness to learn.

Our team's mission is simple:

Explore: We want to explore the fascinating world of robotics and technology, diving headfirst into a hands-on learning adventure.

Learn: Along the way, we're eager to gain new skills in teamwork, problem-solving, and innovation that will serve us in the future.

Compete: Despite being amateurs, we're excited to participate in FTC competitions and test our self-built robots against others in the spirit of friendly competition.

Why We Need Your Support:

Creating innovative and competitive robots requires not only dedication and talent but also resources. Our team relies on the generosity of individuals and organizations like you to fund our journey. Your support will directly impact our ability to build, create, and colaborate.
