The I Hart Flying Foundation has launched a new initiative, “Springs into Action,” which offers more than $30,000 in flight training scholarships.
Applications for the scholarships will be accepted through May 24, 2024.
“Flight training is no cake walk,” said Rachelle Spector, founder of the I Hart Flying Foundation. “Each year we offer multiple themed scholarship opportunities and meet incredible women paving their own way in the aviation space. We’re honored to be a part of each lady’s journey and witness where they’ve come from to where they’ve landed in their respective professional aviation careers.”
Spring into Action is the third in I Hart Flying Foundation’s multi-year campaign, Hart Aviation Nation Delivers (H.A.N.D.)
“Each opportunity is coupled with youth outreach events and speaking engagements to create a more hands-on approach to encouraging our youth to explore and experience STEM and aviation careers as well,” officials noted.
Spring into Action is funded through the support of partners Immaculate Flight, Sheltair, a grant from the Enterprise Mobility Foundation, and new partners, Gulfstream Aerospace Corp., and General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA).
More than $30,000 is planned to fund multiple scholarship awards, pilot training supplies, and other flight equipment by a variety of I Hart Flying’s partners, including King Schools, Bose Aviation, AEG Fuels, FlyteCo Tower, Go Rentals, Boeing Business Jets, Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), Titan Aviation Fuels, Airbus Corporate Jets, Jet Support Services, Inc., Dassault Falcon Jet, and Veryon.
