Education in the Community
Non-profits providing educational opportunities in their community
H. Michael Hayes’s grandson, Evan, and his robotics team, Angelbotics, won the 2024 First Robotics Competition - Utah Regional and defended their Colorado Regional title! As well as winning both events, Angelbotics was the recipient of the Gracious Professionalism Award, celebrating outstanding demonstration of working together both on and off the field of play. The team of dedicated and talented East High School students spend countless hours designing, building, and programming their robots. Angelbotics understands the importance of investing in young people to support not only East High School’s team, but also inspire future generations of young people to pursue their passions in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. We are proud to support Evan and his team!
