The I Hart Flying Foundation has launched a new scholarship initiative that seeks to give women of all ages opportunities to enter flight training.

The three-year campaign, titled Hart Aviation Nation Delivers (HAND), has already spawned a collaborative, themed scholarship called “All Hands on Deck,” which brings together several sponsors. Four I Hart Flying scholars have been supported by the initiative in its first three months—and an upcoming event at Denver’s Rocky Mountain Metro Airport (KBJC) on National Aviation Day (August 19), will drive more participation from donors such as Immaculate Flight, Sheltair, AEG Fuels, and new partner, Ft. Lauderdale Executive Airport.
