Ninety-Nines launches fundraising campaign

By General Aviation News Staff · February 17, 2006 ·

The Ninety-Nines Museum of Women pilots has launched a worldwide fundraising campaign. Through it’s “Wings for History” endowment fund, the Oklahoma City museum is asking for support through donations of airplanes. Helen Holbird of Oklahoma City, a member of the Ninety-Nines, was the first to donate an aircraft. Money from the sale of her Cessna 172 will begin the new endowment fund. All donations are tax deductible and will be used to develop and preserve the museum, which houses significant artifacts, including several of Amelia Earhart’s personal possessions.
