GIVING + OUTREACH
In order to make Legacy Aviation Learning Center possible, we must expand our current infrastructure through available funding, foundation grants, and individual contributions. These funds will be used to expand current hangar and classroom space and to purchase tools, equipment and teaching aids.
Investing in our organizational resilience is an important form of impact. From program materials to faculty retention, support for our daily operations will help us deliver a world-class student experience.
Financial gifts to Legacy Aviation Learning Center will fund:
PEOPLE - Attracting and keeping first-rate faculty will equip our students for boundless success. Curriculum delivery necessitates that two full-time instructors are immediately hired to learn the curriculum, design lesson plans, and lead our students through the necessary modules. The addition of two more full-time instructors will be necessary as we grow. In time, the faculty will expand to include substitute instructors as needed.
PROGRAMS - Delivering a world-class program starts with people, and requires advanced technological tools and equipment. We've aligned with employers around the country to deliver career-ready professionals, identifying the need to train in avionics and composites, creating pathways to economic stability.
CAPITAL - Learning with modern technologies in first-rate facilities keeps training relevant to 21st century needs. Equipping our facility with ample space for technological learning and areas for study will position us for success.
