Supporting Aspiring Women Pilots: Help Us Reach New Heights!
Our mission is clear: To provide an affordable and accessible platform for female pilots to accumulate flight hours on C- FWQS and gain invaluable experience, empowering them to realize their aviation aspirations, supporting our vision of achieving gender parity within the aviation industry. However, the ownership and maintenance of an aircraft entail significant financial commitments, and this is where we humbly seek your assistance. Your generous contribution will play a vital role in ensuring the sustainability of this extraordinary project. By supporting us, you are directly contributing to the growth and success of female pilots and helping us take one step closer to achieving the goal of a 50% representation of women in the aviation industry. As we have charitable status, receipts can be made for your donations, thus contributing to reducing your organization’s taxable income.
