AVIATION SCHOLARSHIPS
To honor the legacy of Capt John J. Sax, USMC, our foundation provides scholarships to individuals pursuing their dreams in aviation, supporting the aspirations of current and future aviators, as well as those studying or training in related fields.
These scholarships are available to:
- Future or current aviators requiring financial aid for licenses, flight hours, certifications, ratings, and more.
- Students pursuing college degrees in aeronautical science, aeronautical engineering, or other aviation-related fields.
- Individuals engaged in other aviation-related educational endeavors.
Fueling Aviation Dreams
We recognize that the costs of college tuition, licensing, certifications, ratings, and flight hours can create significant financial barriers for those pursuing careers in aviation. Our scholarships are designed to ease that burden, providing financial support to qualified individuals with a passion for aviation, whether as pilots, engineers, air traffic controllers, or other key roles in the field.
Capt John Sax understood these challenges firsthand, both from pursuing his own aviation dreams and instructing others as a CFI. He worked hard as a student employee while he learned to fly, applied for scholarships and grants, and took out student loans to partially fund his own dreams, which he only continued paying on throughout his Marine career until his passing.
Our goal is to help alleviate that financial obstacle for others, with aviation scholarships ranging from $500 - $5000.
