At the Capt Sax Foundation, all decisions related to donor funds are made exclusively by our Board of Directors.
This helps to ensure every aviation scholarship is awarded with intention, integrity, and a clear focus on impact. Our board is made up entirely of military and civilian pilots who serve on a volunteer basis, bringing real-world experience and deep understanding of the aviation journey.
Every dollar raised goes directly toward aviation scholarships and grants, with funds disbursed straight to flight schools, colleges, and approved aviation programs. Every contribution is directed to help recipients make real progress.
So how do we choose our scholars?
It goes far beyond grades or test scores.
We look for passion, the kind that keeps someone showing up even when the path gets difficult. We consider financial need, recognizing that training and education costs are often among the biggest barriers standing between someone and their goals. And we look for a commitment to mentorship, service, and community, individuals who are willing to lift others along the way.
That reflects the standard John lived by.
A mindset rooted in accountability, service, and the belief that excellence means caring deeply about the people and mission around you.
Every scholarship we award is an extension of that philosophy, supporting individuals who carry that same spirit into the aviation community.
Our application windows run year-round, with cutoffs on June 15th and December 15th.
