Hello everyone! My name is Alvin and I am 24 years old. I am currently pursuing a career in aviation to become an airline pilot. Since I was a little boy, I’ve had a strong passion for airplanes. and to this day I still can't grasp the idea that planes do fly every day safely. My ambition to become a pilot has already allowed me to get a bachelor’s degree in aviation management with a 3.11 GPA and I am currently attending flight school. Since high school, I knew how expensive flight training would be and I knew that I wanted to be a pilot, so I took the initiative on my own to start saving money. I'm not even halfway through my flight training as there are still years of training to be an airline pilot. Unfortunately, the funds I've saved up have been depleting at a rapid pace due to how expensive it is to learn how to fly in New York. Flight training was not as expensive before but now, flight training is two times the cost of what I had saved up when I was younger. I’ve never taken a loan out and I really wish not to due to the fact our economy is experiencing very high inflation and high interest rates. I do guarantee all donations will go STRAIGHT to my school. This is why I'm asking for any donations from friends, family, or anyone that would like to genuinely help as it will all go solely to flight training. Quitting on my dreams because of a financial burden is not an option. I have a city of people that want to see me make it and I don't want to let them down. You can help me overcome these obstacles if you invest in my dreams with me.
