Help Joseph Continue His Aviation Dream

If you can donate $20, $50, $100, $200 or more, whatever you can would be very helpful. My son Joseph has always dreamed big. As a child, he was fascinated by storms and tornadoes, and that curiosity grew into a passion for aviation after one of his best friends earned a pilot’s license. Since then, flying has become Joseph’s world—he talks about it constantly, spends his free time on flight simulators with friends, and is determined to become a commercial airline pilot.

Joseph is currently a full-time student in the aviation program at Lane Community College in Oregon. He’s worked hard to stay focused on his studies, and I’ve done everything I can to support him. Unfortunately, we recently learned—without any advance notice from the school—that we need to come up with a significant amount for his flight hours by September or October, or Joseph won’t be able to enroll for the fall semester. While I’ve managed to cover his other school expenses, the cost of these flight hours is more than I can handle alone, especially at this stage in my life.

This fundraiser is our chance to keep Joseph’s dream alive. The funds will go directly toward the flight hours he needs to continue his program without interruption. With your support, Joseph can stay on track to earn his pilot’s license and move one step closer to a future as a commercial airline pilot. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings him closer to the sky!
