Application Overview
Here are some important things you need to know before completing this form:

This year, the tentative application window begins on June 1st. The first review cycle will take place on July 1, 2025.

We provide training scholarships to adult women (18+) in the sport of powered paragliding.

Scholarships provide funds for class tuition ONLY. We do not cover costs of travel, food, lodging, etc. We do not cover expenses related to broken and damaged equipment. Scholarship awards can not be used to train with a relative or spouse. Scholarship awards can only be used for training with an individual or school that holds current instructor ratings from ASC or USPPA.

While we are looking for applicants wanting to transform their lives we are also seeking women that are current paramotor pilots wishing to progress in the sport and give back.

Applicants can only apply once a year. Duplicate applications will be deleted.
