Washingtonville, NY, Friday, February 16, 2018 — The Build-A-Pilot, Corp. is pleased to announce the 2018 aviation scholarship open to youth ages 15-20 in the Hudson Valley. Scholarship applications are due by May 31st, 2018, and are accessible online at www.build-a-pilot.org.
Build-A-Pilot’s scholarship, funded by corporations and individuals, is designed to help enable enthusiastic youth interested to becoming a pilot.
In response to the prohibitive costs of flight training and shortage of pilots, Build-A-Pilot Corp. has created a program that mentors, guides, and provides scholarship to enthusiastic youth who wish to become pilots.
Interested in giving accessibility to enthused students in the Hudson Valley who possess a financial need, Build-A-Pilot, Corp. provides a 50% scholarship to successful candidates who prove a strong interest in aviation.
After a hiatus of nearly 9 years, the volunteers and supporters behind Build-A-Pilot, Corp. are revitalizing the organization to not only provide scholarship to deserving youth, but to instill a love of aviation in them. Volunteers provide mentorship and guidance to recipients and take a vested interest in the success of each scholarship awardee.
