Program
We plan on holding the below event in 2022, if covid 19 conditions improve and the county allows us to hold such event with proper ppe and safeguards. On may 11, 2019, the 5th Skybot Challenge event held at leavitt ms and hs in clark county nv, with 7 teams from 5 schools and over 39 students. Similar to prior years, each team was called a corporation, with different industry applications of skybots from agriculture to emergencyresponse, engaged in the first of its kind competition, by presenting business plans and flying their skybots through an obstacle race. This obstacle racetrack and control system was developed and built by partners from robotics for stem, from ridgecrest ca. The event was open to the public and attracted a total of 100+ spectators from the community to meet the teams and enjoy the skybot flying. About 25 or so volunteers contributed over 300+ hours of their time to the may 11th event. These community volunteers provided volunteer-time averaging the 300+ hours to this effort for the 2019 competition, including video rendering and promotion on the nonprofit's website. Roboticss have been part of competitions for many years. With the advent of airborne drones,…

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2018 to 2019, from $4k to $1k (−64%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 5 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
2020 → 2023: the base held at 1 funder, grant income fell $81 → $12.
1 of 1 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of SKYBOT CHALLENGE’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
Where its funders are
100% of SKYBOT CHALLENGE's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $127 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
