Support Adrian: Future Pilot Needs Help

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Adrian!

I’m currently pursuing a degree in Aeronautical Science at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Prescott, Arizona. I’m reaching out to you — my community, my friends, and those who believe in the power of dreams — for support during a critical time in my journey.

Since I was young, I’ve dreamed of becoming an operational pilot in the United States Air Force. For me, it’s not just about flying — it’s about leadership, service, and living a life of purpose.

Over the years, I’ve dedicated myself to building a future grounded in discipline, hard work, and giving back. I’ve been deeply involved in AFJROTC, the U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps, and the Civil Air Patrol, where I currently serve as a Cadet Captain — a rank earned by only a small percentage of cadets nationwide. Along the way, I’ve been honored with awards that reflect my commitment and leadership, including:

The Air Commando Association Award

The Military Order of World Wars Award

The Air and Space Force Association Award — received twice

In the Sea Cadets, I’ve earned the rank of Chief Petty Officer, placing me in the top 3% of cadets nationwide. I've also held positions such as Mission Support Group Commander, Command Chief Master Sergeant, and Leading Petty Officer, overseeing and mentoring hundreds of fellow cadets.

Despite my achievements, I’m currently facing a financial obstacle that could stop all of this in its tracks. I still need $25,500 to cover my tuition for the next academic year, due in full by August 1st. My family is low-income, and we don’t have all the resources to make up the remaining amount — despite we are working hard to get there.

“Even the sky isn’t the limit when your dreams are bigger than fear.”

This isn’t just about me — it’s about the kind of leader I want to be and the kind of difference I hope to make in the world. If you’re able to donate or share this with someone who might be willing to help, you’re not just supporting my education — you’re helping me stay on the path toward serving this country from the skies.

Thank you for believing in me.
With all my gratitude,
Adrian Aleman

I wanted to share that all funds raised will go directly toward covering my college tuition, as well as essential school supplies like textbooks, technology, and materials I need to succeed in my classes.

Every donation—no matter the size—brings me one step closer to reaching my educational goals, and I’m truly grateful for any help you’re able to give or share.

Thank you again for believing in me and my future.
