Foundation Seeks Applications For Funding For Projects And Programs In Seven Program Areas
Each year the Wolf Aviation Fund provides grants for a number of individuals and organizations doing great work in general aviation. To date more than 350 awards have been given, providing worthy applicants the funding and recognition that is so vital for folks working on new ideas.
This year's deadline for applications is December 15. Applications must meet certain criteria and fit into the Fund's seven major program areas, which are: Developing Public Policy and Airports; Networking and Mutual Support; Development and Alternative Resources; Communications, Media, and Community Relations; General Aviation Technology, Safety, and Noise; Improving Public Understanding and Perception; and Aviation and Space Education.
Projects receiving awards reflect the remarkable goals and accomplishments of the grant recipients and the value of their contributions, often as volunteers leading teams of other volunteers in their communities. They all deserve our recognition, support, encouragement, and thanks for working so hard to build the future of aviation.
Proposals often received partial support, because by providing partial funding as challenge grants the recipients often use the honor and recognition of a Wolf Aviation Fund grant to approach others and seek additional funding. This approach permits more projects to receive grants and has proven quite successful. We encourage all aviation supporters to look for those who have won Wolf Aviation Fund awards and display our logo, and to provide them additional support.
Not all proposals could be funded, thus the Foundation is working to increase the resources available for projects. Your support could help make more projects happen! Please visit the Wolf Aviation Fund website and learn about the Fund and how to help support some of these projects or to set up your own dedicated grant program.
