At Youth Flight Canada, we are committed to inspiring and empowering the next generation of aviators. Your generous donation plays a vital role in supporting our mission to provide unique and enriching flight experiences to youth across the country.
Support Educating Youth
Your donations help fund the next generation of soaring pilots, which will allow the sport of soaring to be carried on for years to come.
Soaring has no limits
Freedom Wings Collaboration: We proudly collaborate with Freedom Wings, an organization dedicated to providing flight experiences to individuals with physical disabilities. Your donation helps cover the costs of adaptive equipment and specialized training, ensuring that everyone, regardless of physical ability, can experience the joy of flight.
Safety is our priority
Equipment and Maintenance: Ensuring the safety and quality of our flight experiences is paramount. Your support helps us maintain and upgrade our fleet of aircraft, invest in safety equipment, and provide ongoing training for our instructors and volunteers.
Toronto Soaring's Support
Clubhouse
Toronto Soaring generously provides Youth Flight Canada access to their clubhouse, where we join their members for monthly potlucks. These gatherings, often ending with bonfires and camping under the stars, create a strong bond between young pilots and experienced aviators, enriching our shared passion for gliding.
Hangar
Toronto Soaring also lends us their hangar, crucial for storing and maintaining our gliders. However, as our program grows, we need additional space to support more youth pilots. We're seeking funding to build a new hangar, and with your support, we can ensure a secure home for our fleet and continue expanding our impact.
Instructors
All of our instructors at Toronto Soaring are dedicated volunteers, giving their time and expertise without any compensation. Their passion for aviation and commitment to mentoring the next generation of pilots is the backbone of our program. Their selfless contributions make it possible for us to offer high-quality training at a fraction of the cost.
Tow Plane
Toronto Soaring provides us with a tow plane and volunteer tow pilots who generously give their time to support our flights. These skilled pilots, like our instructors, are unpaid, driven by a love for aviation and a desire to help young pilots take to the skies. Their contributions are vital to our program's success, allowing us to keep costs low while providing essential flight experiences.
Twenty years from now, you'll regret the flights you never took more than the ones you did. So unclip the towline, leave the comfort of the airfield, and ride the thermals to new heights. Soar. Dream. Discover.
