Support our mission by contributing a donation.

Why give?

  • By donating, you are directly helping aspiring pilots from underprivileged backgrounds achieve their dream of becoming professional aviators. This can create opportunities for individuals who otherwise might not have the financial means to pursue aviation training.

  • Aviation is a field that can often be inaccessible to those without substantial financial resources. Supporting this cause helps make aviation more diverse and inclusive, allowing individuals from different socioeconomic backgrounds to contribute to the industry.

  • This unique cause blends the excitement of aviation with the community aspect of golf. Donors have the chance to support two passions in one, while also promoting camaraderie and networking within the aviation and golf communities. It’s an exciting way to merge leisure with education.

  • Golf outings and leagues provide a chance for professionals to meet others in the aviation industry, build relationships, and potentially open doors for mentorship and career opportunities for the recipients of your donations.

  • A donation isn’t just a one-time help; it’s an investment in someone's future career. Those who are able to get their pilot certificates and become professional aviators can have a lasting impact on the industry and, in turn, inspire others to follow the same path.

  • Supporting future aviators helps maintain the history and legacy of aviation. By empowering the next generation of pilots, you’re contributing to an industry that’s always evolving, while preserving its rich tradition.

Distribution of Scholarships

Cleared for Teeoff will utilize funds accumulated through donations, sponsorships, and grants to support underprivileged aviators who have demonstrated significant commitment to their aviation careers. Specifically, the funds will be allocated to individuals who have completed their pilot certifications up to at least the instrument rating, or even the commercial certificate.  

Qualified candidates will be identified through established aviation-focused organizations, such as OBAP, WIA, PAPA, and NGPA, which have extensive experience in awarding scholarships and identifying deserving individuals. In addition to these organizations, Cleared for Teeoff will partner with university flight programs nationwide to further promote scholarship opportunities.

By collaborating with both these trusted organizations and university aviation programs, Cleared for Teeoff is confident in its ability to reach the most deserving aspiring aviators. This approach ensures that the scholarship funds will be distributed where they will make the greatest impact in advancing the careers of future pilots.
