Our Mission
It Begins With Girls Believing They Can Fly
The 100 Pairs of Wings Project aims to send 100 woman of color to flight school by the year 2035. As the aviation industry faces a critical shortage of pilots, we encourage dreamers of every hue to join us. In this remarkable age of widening opportunity, fewer than 150 women of African descent fly for the regional, military, corporate, cargo and major airlines combined.
Robotics, airspace, crew resource management—we’ve only just begun! In Summer 2026, we launched Drone Soccer in the Newark Public Schools

Our Program
100 Pairs of Wings Project
Fewer than 150 Black women are professional pilots in the U.S. Our goal is to nearly double that number within the next decade. The 100 Pairs of Wings Project will equip candidates with the skills to become airline pilots.
We invite you to support the future of aviation with your gift. Support one student or a class of ten. Your support will launch a career. Studies have shown that organizations with robust talent outperform competitors. Let’s keep America safe by strengthening our national pipeline.
