EVERYDAY GIVER Supports Students

We offer two programs for students: one teaches "service" principles from the resiliency principles in the book, "Reclaiming the Sky," and a second helps students prepare for a career in aviation using the principles in the book.

- Everyday Giver, - high school students learn how to apply the “service” principles they learn from the courage of aviation workers to their volunteer projects in school – and to their lives.

- "Claiming Your Sky" puts the "leadership principles" from the stories into a curriculum to help students enhance decision-making skills, deepen their capacity for empathy and increase their chances for aviation employment.

- Read Denis' Hamill's column in the NY Daily News.
